I would redownload your I&A because a variable isn't getting defined properly somewhere.

got it; could a marker getting deleted cause something like this?

Yea it could be possible because I know within the bowels of I&A there are marker arrays that search for central positions to create each of the main/side objectives, but I'm not sure that would display "any" or not.

yea youre defintely right--- i dont know what i did but the origianl rarek i&a has the labels of course-

im guessing i accidentally deleted a marker

i didnt realize that when selecting objects by left clicking and dragging the selection square, hidden objects such as markers are also selected

Yea a good thing to do as a precaution when moving a lot of stuff around is to just hit F6 (Markers), that way all the hidden markers will also pop up, so you can see if your moving/deleting them.

I actually sent a PM to AHOY and others have this issue too. I don't think its on your side. I have it on mine too. Usually the first side mission does this and the rest follow as normal. No worries it should be fine. IF we're speaking of the same thing. Ahoy responded with, they'll look into it. SO. may be next update.

This has been fixed on the latest versions of I&A (2.80). If you don't want to DL those, PM me link to your PBO and ill fix it up. Its a quick fix but you have to know where to look and there are quite a number of entries.

The issue came up in the 1.31 or 1.32 update, when BIS changed the global effect of setMarkerText, setMarkerText on a global marker no longer synchronizes the text to all connected clients, however it still works for JIP. The effect is that when you join the session, the marker will display the text correctly, but as soon as setMarkerText is used, there is locality issues.

by chance could you say which folder the fix is in, so I can just copy over the files for that folder? thanks.

Is 2.8 for stratis only? I just see the stratis version upto 2.83. I assume some files are the same. could you enlighten us slaves. thanks.
