Bug or Scripting Issue?

[Mc-Pril 11]

Ok so basically, I am running a private altis life server (To learn etc), and I've added a welcome screen for each player side (Medic, Police, Civ)

 

The problem I have is when I join as a cop, the welcome menu shows up but before it shows up I get this welcome screen first.

 

 

 

Now inside the welcome screen, is exactly the same thing for each side. So i know its not something to do with that (Or am I wrong?)

 

Anyway, here is the entire code for the welcome screens

 

/*
	File: serv_Welc_screen.sqf
        Author: Whoever created the original.

        Desc: Show's welcome screen for Police, Civ, & Medic! Has separate text for each side.

As you can see it's basically all the same, just for each different side.

Is there a way to stop that Eden Screen from coming first?

 

It only shows on police side, not any other side.

 

Thanks.

Maybe you should ask "Whoever created the original." why the wrong welcome screen is shown ;)

 

Also you should discuss this in a life forum or something like that.

The welcome screen is shown because I wanted it to be shown lol

 

No point in posting on the life forums, cause marjority of the people dont speak english etc.

 

I was told to come here.

I'm not sure how to work around it, but this issue is explained by the first note on the BI wiki:

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/playerSide

 

Look into when side of JIP players returns the correct result.

You should use own display instead of RscDisplayWelcome
