dlegion 98 Posted August 4, 2017 hi guys! i've been plagued for many months now, by a really strange problem, that happens just sometimes, apparently at random times. here is what happens usually: i start the game, join a server, and when it should show the respawn menu, where you can select respawn position, the whole menu is not there! even tapping ESC key does nothing (usually it should show the game menu), and only way to exit from that situation is to ALT+F4 or if server close (being my dedicated, i tried shut it down, at that point i got an error aabout "connection lost" and from there i could open menu again). now after many months, for the first time, i got an error while in editor MP test, and the same symptoms as the ones usually happening on dedicated! i cant understand what that mean, but maybe someone can cast some light on this! thanks ! here is the error:https://ibb.co/fCh1XF Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I could be misunderstanding here but I don't think so... This is hurting my eyes lol. I recommend you remove that and start over in a .sqf instead. I'll be happily to help you out that way...

dlegion 98 Posted August 7, 2017 ah i understand now!! no, its not my code, thats default game code!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HazJ 1288 Posted August 7, 2017 I can't reproduce this? I think you are using one of the BIS functions incorrectly. Passing some invalid data (undefined, etc) or something? Not sure.

dlegion 98 Posted August 7, 2017 yep, it seems to happen randomly, also i have problems to reproduce this! seems to happen more often if game is just started. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HazJ 1288 Posted August 7, 2017 Can you provide some example mission with just the respawn menu stuff, etc...??? To reproduce this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dlegion 98 Posted August 7, 2017 sure!! here's my mission:https://mega.nz/#!KtZ2GLiQ!-PxDcaPxXqjeuAaSeUEk2YT1e-UDZf22TXr0dhrVS5E it happens more frequently if you just start arma3 launcher, then start arma3, then just join dedicated server with that mission running. sometimes, but more rare, it happens if you just start arma3, load editor, load altis, load that mission, and preview it in MP. sadly it does not happen always :( i can run a dedicated server when you want if you want!

Can you provide some example mission with just the respawn menu stuff, etc...??? The reason I ask you to do this is because, I can't reproduce these errors.

HazJ 1288 Posted August 7, 2017 I am looking at it in your mission.sqm on line 1313. I recommend and highly suggest you just load the mission in the Editor and delete the module (name: GmHQ). Classname appears to be: ModuleRespawnPosition_F Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dlegion 98 Posted August 7, 2017 wowow! you found the problem?? man...you're awesome!! great! i will search for it now in editor ! thanks man ! EDIT: ok found it! GmHQ is an APC, and synced to it is a " ModuleRespawnPosition_F ". on the long run i will need it, but for test i delete it and see if problem happens again !! thanks man !!
