Onmapsingleclick problem

[Taylor1984 14]

Hi

 

I'm having problems getting units to move when you click the map in multiplayer when clients use onmapsingleclick. It seems you can't remoteexec the _pos that onmapsingleclick uses?

 

Thankful for help

This is most likely not the best solution but you could try just doing 

pos = _pos

I don't see that failing. 

 

remoteExec don't work with local variables is what I'm trying to say. Unless they're also local on target PC.

_pos is a special variable for this "EH". That works fine with a script. For example adding waypoint on a group (the group must be defined locally, of course)

So, the best way to help you will be possible if you send your whole code, not the fact you need to publicVariable a position. Spatsiba comment (make it a global variable) is not an MP solution,btw.

It does.

No that's not how local variables work. Neither is that how remoteExec works. This is not how any of this works.

Very bad idea. Global variables should always have a tag or a very unique name.

 

@Taylor1984 Show us the code you are trying to use. You can do what you are trying to do just fine. There is some error in your code.

Why are you trying to remoteExec _pos anyway?

You don't need to do that for storing the position. Save to some variable. As @Dedmen said. Share your code. You can also explain what you are trying to do.
