Infinite loading screen - Script Issue

[J. Yssing 11]

Hi All

Im making a script for a milsim unit i play with, and the script i made causes infinite loading screens, so far i havent been able to uncover the issue. So i hope someone here on A3 forum is able to help.

 

Here is the ammobox init:

this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Recruit</t>", "loadouts\Recruit.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Rifleman UCP</t>", "loadouts\RiflemanUCP.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Rifleman</t>", "loadouts\Rifleman.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Anti Tank</t>", "loadouts\AntiTank.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Combat Engineer</t>", "loadouts\CombatEngineer.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Combat Medic</t>", "loadouts\CombatMedic.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Fire Team Leader</t>", "loadouts\FireTeamLeader.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Squad Leader</t>", "loadouts\SquadLeader.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Platoon Leader / 2IC</t>", "loadouts\PlatoonLeader.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>MG M249</t>", "loadouts\MGM249.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>MG M240</t>", "loadouts\MGM240.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Marksman</t>", "loadouts\Marksman.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Flight Medic</t>", "loadouts\FlightMedic.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Heli Pilot</t>", "loadouts\Pilot.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Jet Pilot</t>", "loadouts\JetPilot.sqf"];

The pupose is to make a box will all loadouts preset so a new player just have to mousewheel select class then boom all the required equipment to survive an operation.

 

Here is the script for RiflemanUCP.sqf

clearAllItemsFromBackpack player;
clearBackpackCargo player;
removeAllWeapons player;
removeAllItems player;
removeAllAssignedItems player;
removeUniform player;
removeVest player;
removeBackpack player;
removeHeadgear player;
removeGoggles player;
{player unassignItem _x;player removeItem _x} forEach assignedItems player;

Hope someone is able to find my error.

Looking forward to your response.

It's works correctly in singleplayer, and if i test it as a multiplayer scenario through the 3D Editor.

 

As soon as the mission is uploaded to a dedicated server it causes the infinite loading screen.

[J. Yssing 11]

if i run the mission on the dedicated server without these two scripts there is no issue at all.

[Persian MO 81]

maybe you made your mission with some mods and you don't have those mods on the dedicated server.

I already checked that. unfortunately, that does not seem to be the case, but thx anyway  :)

[J. Yssing 11]

Issue got partially fixed, instead of using "this" i named all the assets in my mission.

that seems to have done the job.

Now it looks like 25% of the players get a corrupt mission file.

Addactions have to be added locally for each connecting client, so put

this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Recruit</t>", "loadouts\Recruit.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Rifleman UCP</t>", "loadouts\RiflemanUCP.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Rifleman</t>", "loadouts\Rifleman.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Anti Tank</t>", "loadouts\AntiTank.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Combat Engineer</t>", "loadouts\CombatEngineer.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Combat Medic</t>", "loadouts\CombatMedic.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Fire Team Leader</t>", "loadouts\FireTeamLeader.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Squad Leader</t>", "loadouts\SquadLeader.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Platoon Leader / 2IC</t>", "loadouts\PlatoonLeader.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>MG M249</t>", "loadouts\MGM249.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>MG M240</t>", "loadouts\MGM240.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Marksman</t>", "loadouts\Marksman.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Flight Medic</t>", "loadouts\FlightMedic.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Heli Pilot</t>", "loadouts\Pilot.sqf"]; 
this addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Jet Pilot</t>", "loadouts\JetPilot.sqf"];

in the  initPlayerLocal.sqf  and replace this with the name of your ammo box.

No, everyone runs init fields. Including JIP

 

@OP  I suggest you upload your server .rpt to pastebin and share it here

I know, but he is executed the code from the initbox of the ammobox, not the init.sqf. That could be the issue.

[J. Yssing 11]

I've been doing quite the amount of troubleshooting. and it looks like that if I order the client mods in the same order as the server/mission you can join.

But as soon as a single mod not loaded in the same order as the server/mission you get the infinite loading screen.

 

a very strange issue, but at least I found a workaround.

I named all the assets used in the mission so the init of the AmmoBox looks like this:

LoadoutBox addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Recruit</t>", "loadouts\Recruit.sqf"]; 
LoadoutBox addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Rifleman UCP</t>", "loadouts\RiflemanUCP.sqf"]; 
LoadoutBox addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Rifleman</t>", "loadouts\Rifleman.sqf"]; 
LoadoutBox addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Anti Tank</t>", "loadouts\AntiTank.sqf"]; 
LoadoutBox addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Combat Engineer</t>", "loadouts\CombatEngineer.sqf"]; 
LoadoutBox addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Combat Medic</t>", "loadouts\CombatMedic.sqf"]; 
LoadoutBox addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Fire Team Leader</t>", "loadouts\FireTeamLeader.sqf"]; 
LoadoutBox addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Squad Leader</t>", "loadouts\SquadLeader.sqf"]; 
LoadoutBox addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Platoon Leader / 2IC</t>", "loadouts\PlatoonLeader.sqf"]; 
LoadoutBox addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>MG M249</t>", "loadouts\MGM249.sqf"]; 
LoadoutBox addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>MG M240</t>", "loadouts\MGM240.sqf"]; 
LoadoutBox addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Marksman</t>", "loadouts\Marksman.sqf"]; 
LoadoutBox addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Flight Medic</t>", "loadouts\FlightMedic.sqf"]; 
LoadoutBox addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Heli Pilot</t>", "loadouts\Pilot.sqf"]; 
LoadoutBox addAction ["<t color='#FF7722'>Jet Pilot</t>", "loadouts\JetPilot.sqf"];
