SP scripted sidechat stopped working

[K120 1]

Hello,it's me requesting help again.

I have finally got my mission finished and i was testing that stuff works before saving it as mission. However today none of my scripted side chat messages are showing up. They've worked well since i got them working and if i remember right they still worked yesterday. I don't think i have made any changes that could cause it and all animations in the same script are playing,just messages not showing up.

To me it sounds like something in game have changed but i couldn't find anything related in dev build changelogs.

I have 2 AI's named major and simon_costa elsewhere on the map that do the talking but that shouldn't be the issue since it's sidechat and i have everyone as independent,except enemy ofcourse.

This is one that still worked untill today.

sleep 15;
major sideChat "RADIO CHECK,OVER";
sleep 3;
simon_costa sideChat "RECEIVING YOU 5 BY 5,OVER";
SLEEP 3;
major sideChat "ROGER,I'M STANDING BY.KEEP ME UPDATED ABOUT THE MISSION,OUT.";

Any help to identify the problem is appreciated!

Sidechat you can see only if you are on the same side as the another unit. Maybe you just forgot that and put player (also you) on map on another side? or maybe you disabled sidechat in Description.ext or you removed radio from items or you disabled radio with command enableRadio or maybe you or another unit have negative rating (this happens if you kill friend or with command addrating -20000)? by negative rating unit will be on 'Enemy' side. or... don't know :cool:

Ah that's it! I didn't think of that radio would cause it but now that i think it makes perfect sence. I just removed it since my player starts with civilian gear until mission progresses! :butbut:

Thank you very much! *embarrassed*
