beako 13 Posted August 5, 2016 Hi All, I'm spawning objects on top of buildings while trying to orient "temp_veh" using setVectorUp to the buildings slanted surface, but with no luck. As per setVectorUp, "Set object's up vector. Direction vector will remain unchanged. Default object's vectorUp is [0,0,1]. In Multiplayer, setVectorUp must be executed on the machine where the object it applied to is local." I've tried to run this script from [[_stuff], "BEAKS_fnc_ObjectPositionAndDirectionD", player] call BIS_fnc_MP; thinking this would execute it locally on the player's machine but it is still executed on the server? fn_ObjectPositionAndDirectionD ["move_ghost", "onEachFrame", { ...more code _pos = screenToWorld [0.5,0.5];// land position _topPos = [_pos select 0, _pos select 1, 100]; _intersections = lineIntersectsSurfaces [_topPos,_pos, temp_veh, player, true, 1]; _intersectPosASL = (_intersections select 0) select 0; _surfaceNormal = (_intersections select 0) select 1; _building = (_intersections select 0) select 3; _posDrop = _intersectPosASL; temp_veh setPosASL [_intersectPosASL select 0, _intersectPosASL select 1, _intersectPosASL select 2]; // this part works temp_veh setVectorUp _surfaceNormal; // this line DOES NOT work hint format ["ObjectPositionAndRotation \n\n _intersections: %1 \n\n _intersectPosASL: %2 \n\n _surfaceNormal: %3 \n\n _building: %4", _intersections, _intersectPosASL, _surfaceNormal, _building]; ... more code }] call BIS_fnc_addStackedEventHandler; Any tips you can provide would be appreciated.

Nikander 122 Posted August 5, 2016 I've tried to run this script from [[_stuff], "BEAKS_fnc_ObjectPositionAndDirectionD", player] call BIS_fnc_MP; thinking this would execute it locally on the player's machine but it is still executed on the server?Maybe you should execute that "on the machine where the object it applies to is local", like this: [[_stuff], "BEAKS_fnc_ObjectPositionAndDirectionD", temp_veh] call BIS_fnc_MP; Just a suggestion, Nikander Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
killzone_kid 1326 Posted August 5, 2016 One thing you definitely don't want to do is to remote execute code each frame. I suggest you change locality of temp_veh to the PC where oneachframe loop runs. If this is not possible then move execution to the locality of the temp_veh.

beako 13 Posted August 5, 2016 Thanks above for the tips, I tried using remoteExecCall with target "_veh" as it is local, but is does not execute. If I replace "_veh" with player [_holder,_veh, _vehCost,_vehType] remoteExecCall ["BEAKS_fnc_ObjectPosDirBankPitch", player]; it works but when I test fn_ObjectPosDirBankPitch.sqf with if if (!isServer) then {...}; it won't execute so player is not local. fn_ObjectPositionAndDirectionD // init Ghost vehicle _pos = screenToWorld [0.5,0.5];// land position _center = createCenter sideLogic; _group = createGroup _center; _holder = _group createUnit ["LOGIC",[(_pos select 0), (_pos select 1), 0.5], [],0, "CAN_COLLIDE"]; _veh = _vehType createVehicleLocal [(_pos select 0), (_pos select 1), 0.5]; _veh allowDamage false; _veh attachTo [_holder]; // to avoid collisions use attachTo [_holder,_veh, _vehCost,_vehType] remoteExecCall ["BEAKS_fnc_ObjectPosDirBankPitch", _veh]; fn_ObjectPosDirBankPitch.sqf if (!isServer) then { // Get variables from vehicle selected params ["_holder","_veh","_vehCost","_vehType"];
