Changing player causes OA to freeze?

[ArmAddict 10]

I'm trying to combine the mission "Good Morning Takistan" from the OA Campaign with my own mission and every time I change the player from Drake to someone else and hit preview, the game freezes while loading. Anyone know how to fix this?

Probably some script relating to the players name in "good morning takistan". Because the players name is different, it causes a crash.

^This is a guess.

That's what I thought. I'm still digging through the mission scripts. I'll see what I can find.

In initJIPcompatible.sqf, the condition for the loading screen to end:

if (isServer) then {waitUntil {count simpleTasks player > 0}};

The tasks in the default mission are assigned to BIS_INF (the player's squad), so changing the player is gonna mess that line up. It should be safe to remove it.

I'll try that out tomorrow bhaz.

Thanks Bhaz that did the trick.
