Multiple vehicle with Jip

[cruoriss 12]

Hey , so i've got an action added on a gui menu wich create a vehicle .

The gui menu works fine on jip but the createvehicle part is glitched .

Every time a player uses it , it creates a new vehicle ( it should replace the first one instead, wich happen fine on sp )

The vehicle also have the addactions linked to it only for the player who created it .

if (!isNil "MHQ") then {deletevehicle MHQ};

if (side player == west ) then {
sleep 0.5;
MHQ = "B_Truck_01_covered_F" createvehicle (getmarkerpos "Spawn_MHQ");
sleep 0.5;
[MHQ] execVM "scripts\MHQ\deploy.sqf";   
MHQ addaction [("Teleport to Base"),"teleport\base.sqf","",5,false,true,"",""]; 
MHQ setdir 146.342;
};

The rest of the code is for east/independant side .

Tried to add some "jip proofs" scripts but all failed .

Thanks

did you put this code inside if(isServer)?

if not, each player will have their MHQ variable

if you don't want each player create 1 more vehicle, i suggest you put createVehicle array command in the if(isServer) scope

And if you use if(isServer) scope, and if(!isDedicated) scope, please remember that they are 2 threads running at the same time(only in MP), just like []spawn{};

on the other hand, if MHQ is an object variable, you may want to use if(!isNull MHQ)

Thanks a lot sir , i'll test on dedicated server when i can .

( wasn't using isserver )

you're welcome, you can put the mission to test in KK's MP sandbox, it is very convenient, no need to configure any complicated settings

So it seems that nothing happen when a player try to spawn an MHQ .

With "if (isserver)" only the host can spawn MHQ .

( Worked fine in editor but after test with KK's MP sandbox nothing happen )

try publicvariable "MHQ"; in if(isServer)

[cruoriss 12]

try publicvariable "MHQ"; in if(isServer)

Yay , just added :

publicvariable "MHQ";

at the end of the file and working perfct .

Using if isServer is breaking the script for non host .

Thanks again

EDIT : Everything's fine , fixed addaction problem by adding this to the init.sqf :

if (!isDedicated) then {
[] spawn {
	waitUntil {!isNil "MHQ"};
	_MHQaction = MHQ addAction ["Teleport to base", "teleport\base.sqf"];
         _MHQaction2 = MHQ execVM "scripts\MHQ\deploy.sqf";
};
};
