Error happens when you pass nil's as first parameter. My guess is he is passing variable names of units that don't exist because no player filled their slot.

I placed a laptop as Jammer1 . but yes there is some units that are not always filled by players....  

well 

I place the script folder with the script in the mission folder

Added initPlayerLocal file

and set up a jammer in a laptop naming it Jammer1

so, in the initPlayerLocal file you have something similar to this?

radioJammer = [[jammer1]] execVM "scripts\TFARjamRadios.sqf"

As Dedmen said, it's likely due to an incorrect variable name being passed as the first variable, so, if you haven't already, make sure you double check that you spelled the variable name the same both on the laptop and in the initPlayerLocal.sqf.

Your radio isn’t being jammed in the sample mission? What version of TFR are you using?

Yea. TFAR (and, subsequently, this script) will only work in multiplayer.

@rebel12340  Works fabulous - thanks

For my new mission i want to create TFAR Jamming vehicle with an option to turn on/off the TFAR Jamming feature. 

So is it possible to turn on/off  your TFAR Jammer script with an addAction ?

How can i realize this with addAction?

Having not tested it, something such as this, I think, would get the job done:

 

Action to Enable the jammer

jammer1 addaction ["Enable Jammer", {[[[jammer1]],"scripts\TFARjamRadios.sqf"] remoteExec ["execVM"];}]

Action to disable the jammer

jammer1 addaction ["Disable Jammer", {jammerEnabled = false;  publicVariable "jammerEnabled";}];

 

And then you'd have to edit the script and put this somewhere near the top:

jammerEnabled = true

and edit the while loop to be dependent on jammerEnabled being true

while {alive _jammer AND jammerEnabled} do

That could be one way of doing it.

@Carlos Leung - hi there, I made the mistake on my side the script runs perfectly. You need to be atleast with 2 guys and take a little distance from each other and you will then notice that it works - have fun

@rebel12340 - Hi again, working on a TvT Campaign where both factions will have jammer-equipment. Blufor will have Jammer1 disturbing Opfor players and Opfor Jammer2 disturbing Blufor players. How can I accomplish this ? - (nood here)

 

Thanks

Since the script runs on each client locally, you would just need to run the script for each side. I believe you would just change the code in the initPlayerLocal.sqf to something similar to this:

if (side player == EAST) then {jamOpforRadios = [[Jammer1]] execVM "TFARjamRadios.sqf";}; //Jams Opfor's radios, using Blufor's jammer as the active jammer.
if (side player == WEST) then {jamBluforRadios = [[Jammer2]] execVM "TFARjamRadios.sqf";}; //Jam Blufor's radios, using Opfor's jammer as the active jammer.

Hey thanks for the awesome script @rebel12340 I've added 5 jammers across the map for my units latest ALiVE mission, and the script works great.
We often forget about the jammers and will be pushing into a town to clear it when the radio comms start to degrade. All of a sudden the mission turns from a sweep and clear, into "where's that bloody jammer"  

I also believe it resulted in our CAS pilot dropping munitions on a friendly position. All great stuff, thanks again
