Confusion about addAction

[mistaparadox 10]

Hey guys, I recently tried to add my own addAction menu linking to my own custom script I made. In my init.sqf I placed this:

player addAction ['<t color="#41A317">' + "Remove Fatigue" + '</t>', "scripts\Loadout\Fatigue.sqf"];

It works for the first player who joins the server, but any others after him do not have the option in the action menu to choose the script. Any ideas?

waitUntil {!isNull player && {time > 1}};//JIP 
player addAction ['<t color="#41A317">' + "Remove Fatigue" + '</t>', "scripts\Loadout\Fatigue.sqf"];

player addAction ['<t color="#41A317">' + "Remove Fatigue" + '</t>', "scripts\Loadout\Fatigue.sqf"];

That worked fine, but when people die, they don't have the option to remove fatigue anymore. Do I need some sort of MP Respawning event or what?

You can re-add the addAction with a respawn EH.

waitUntil {!isNull player && {time > 1}};//JIP 

player addAction ['<t color="#41A317">' + "Remove Fatigue" + '</t>', "scripts\Loadout\Fatigue.sqf"]; 

player addEventHandler ["respawn",{ 
    _this addAction ['<t color="#41A317">' + "Remove Fatigue" + '</t>', "scripts\Loadout\Fatigue.sqf"];  
}];

You need to addAction whenever a player spawns, because on death they lose all actions added in their "previous life". So yeah, create an eventHandler like this:

player addEventHandler ["Respawn",
 {_this addAction ['<t color="#41A317">' + "Remove Fatigue" + '</t>', "scripts\Loadout\Fatigue.sqf"];}
];  

Nevermind, ninja'd.

Nevermind, Iceman was quicker.

}];

Hmm... I tried this along with using "addMPEventHandler" and "MPRespawn" but still it didn't work. When they die, they don't have the Remove Fatigue in the action menu, and I'm quite confused. I've literally copied the code exactly and put it in my init.sqf and still nothing.

Sorry, use this instead

waitUntil {!isNull player && {time > 1}};//JIP 

player addAction ['<t color="#41A317">' + "Remove Fatigue" + '</t>', "scripts\Loadout\Fatigue.sqf"]; 

player addEventHandler ["respawn",{ 
    (_this select 0) addAction ['<t color="#41A317">' + "Remove Fatigue" + '</t>', "scripts\Loadout\Fatigue.sqf"];  
}];

Btw, use -showScriptErrors startup parameter if you're not already.
