Hello,...

I'm working on a script to spawm units with basic templates and respawm them with the template given in via a sqf file.

My code so far

_u = player;

removeAllItems _u;
removeAllWeapons _u;
removeVest _u;
removeUniform _u;
removeBackpack _u;

_u addUniform "U_B_CombatUniform_mcam";
_u addVest "V_TacVest_oli";
_u addbackpack "B_Carryall_ocamo";

clearAllItemsFromBackpack _u;
{_u removeMagazine _x} forEach magazines _u;

unitbackpack _U addMagazineCargoGlobal ["20Rnd_762x45_Mag",15];
_u addWeapon "srifle_EBR_Hamr_point_grip_F";
_u addPrimaryWeaponItem "muzzle_snds_B";

_urimw = primaryWeapon _u;
if (_urimw != "") then {
   _u selectWeapon _urimw;
   // Fix for weapons with grenade launcher
   _muzzles = getArray(configFile>>"cfgWeapons" >> _urimw >> "muzzles");
   _u selectWeapon (_muzzles select 0);
};

waitUntil {!alive player};
waitUntil {alive player};

_u = player;

player execVM "Marksman.sqf";

and 

_g = player;

removeAllItems _g;
removeAllWeapons _g;
removeVest _g;
removeUniform _g;
removeBackpack _g;

_g addUniform "U_B_CombatUniform_gcam";
_g addVest "V_TacVest_oli";
_g addbackpack "B_Carryall_ocamo";

clearAllItemsFromBackpack _g;
{_g removeMagazine _x} forEach magazines _g;

unitbackpack _g addMagazineCargoGlobal ["200Rnd_65x39_cased_Box_Tracer",5];
_g addWeapon "LMG_gk200_COWS_pointer_bipod_F";
_g addPrimaryWeaponItem "optic_Hamr";


_grimw = primaryWeapon _g;
if (_grimw != "") then {
   _g selectWeapon _grimw;
   // Fix for weapons with grenade launcher
   _guzzles = getArray(configFile>>"cfgWeapons" >> _grimw >> "muzzles");
   _g selectWeapon (_guzzles select 0);
};

waitUntil {!alive player};
waitUntil {alive player};

_g = player;

player execVM "SupportGunner.sqf";

I emply the script by executing it by putting _handle = player execVM "the file" in the init of the unit wich is recieving the template.

Its all running just fine while i'm on my own in a server but....

When I enable both scripts ingame, so I put _handle = player execVM "file for gunner" in one units init and _handle = player execVM "file for marksman" in the other. It for some reason overides the gunner and both players spawn as marksman.

WHY ???

Can sombody help me out here please ?

Greatings,

rj twins

It might be because the "player" command is local for every player, and they're being cross-executed in some weird fashion? Since you put them in the init box, use _handle = this execVM "the file" instead of "player", and in the script, use "_g = _this;". It could solve the problem.

As far as I know, this script only gives the correct equipment for a single respawn, though, I think you need some kind of a loop for multiple ones.

Edit: Eh, of course it doesn't, since the whole script is executed again. You need to leave the last "player"'s intact, at least.

Thank you, I'm trying it right now.

Its not working, the script is now not giving me the weapon uniform or vest anymore, it does give me the backpack with the ammo i specified.. ??..

Is there a way to get a dubugger working for this ? fo fiend out where the script stops working.
