MarkCode82 21 Posted August 13, 2015 Problem description: The below script is unable to spawn Lightning1_F.p3d and Lightning2_F.p3d files on an if (isServer) then {} condition yet called from debug console via Local execution or Global Execution it works. Is there anyway I could do this? The kind of error I see is the following. a3\data_f_curator\misc\lightning1.p3d: No geometry and no visual shape a3\data_f_curator\misc\lightning2.p3d: No geometry and no visual shape function names:RS_fnc_ThunderGenerator; RS_fnc_CreateLightningBolt; RS_fnc_createLightPoint; Call stack:[true] spawn RS_fnc_ThunderGenerator -> [randomised direction, X axis displacement, Y Axis Displacement,Z Axis Displacement] call RS_fnc_createLightningBolt;LightningBolt is used for reference from which the[X axis displacement, Y Axis Displacement,Z Axis Displacement] call RS_fnc_createLightpoint At which point the code then executes the playSound3D from the references to the vehicle Objects.
