drawIcon multiplayer help!

[Fiddi 68]

Hi, I'm having problems figuring out what I'm doing wrong with the command drawIcon. It works in singleplayer and the icon shows up on the map, but in multiplayer it doesn't. It's supposed to be displayed on both the GPS-minimap and the regular map screen.

 

Here's the code I've got so far. It's executed on the init of the unit (fredrik) in question.

((findDisplay 12) displayCtrl 51) ctrlAddEventHandler ["Draw", {
	(_this select 0) drawIcon [
		"iconManMedic",
		[0,0,1,1],
		(getPosWorld fredrik),
		0.5 / ctrlMapScale (_this select 0),
		0.5 / ctrlMapScale (_this select 0),
		getDir fredrik,
		(name fredrik)
	];
}];

 

Any kind of clarification on how to get it to show up on the GPS and in multiplayer would be appreciated!

Thanks!

For the GPS:

miniMapEH = ((uiNamespace getVariable "RscCustomInfoMiniMap") displayCtrl 101) ctrlAddEventHandler ["Draw", client_fnc_playerMarkers];

Where do you run your code?

Thanks for the code!

 

I'm executing it on the players init field inside the editor. But I've tried initServer.sqf and initPlayerLocal.sqf

In initPlayerLocal.Sqf:

[] spawn {

waitUntil {!isNull findDisplay 12};

//your script here 

} ;

Right, so the display wasn't initialized when the event handler was made. Guess that makes sense. Thanks!
