Support module

[sabot10.5mm 47]

i created a single player mission with player respawn, synced with a few support modules. i have a problem with syncing the modules back to the player, it just wont work. even manualy syncing using THIS wont work.. 

 

player addAction ["sync arty", {

[player, req, arty] call bis_fnc_addsupportlink;

}];

 

player addAction ["sync drop", {

[player, req, supply] call bis_fnc_addsupportlink;

}];

 

there is a carvate to this. it works after killing the ai then killing the player

i suspect the ai leader is taking control of support

this is the code i am using to respawn the player. supports sometimes isnt synced to the player on respawn
