End mission question

[gc8 981]

Hi

I'm using BIS_fnc_endMission and remoteExecCall to end mission on all clients but the wiki says that BIS_fnc_endMissionServer should be used in MP. So my question is do I call BIS_fnc_endMission on clients and BIS_fnc_endMissionServer on server? Or am I supposed to only call BIS_fnc_endMissionServer and that's it?

 

thx

call BIS_fnc_endMissionServer

 

This^

 

Based on what I know.

@major-stiffy Yes that would work. But how do I show custom end screen for winners/losers like BIS_fnc_endMission does?

[major-stiffy 282]

"SideScore" call BIS_fnc_endMissionServer;    ///???

Never tested it.

Yeah I read the wiki but nowhere says how to make custom end for BIS_fnc_endMissionServer.

I'm still a bit lost on this one. Does anyone know what kind of mission end calls should I make for TvT mission where other team wins and other loses?

You need to define what are the conditions for winning/losing the game, then add some classes in the description.ext.

I didn't test it, sorry.

@pierremgi Yes I know but my question is what functions should I call?

 

Here's my debrief classes:

 

class CfgDebriefing
{
	class defeat
	{
		title = "Defeat!";
		subtitle = "All towns lost";
		description = "Your team lost all it's towns";
		//pictureBackground = "";
		//picture = "KIA";
		//pictureColor[] = {0.6,0.1,0.2,1};
	};
	
	class victory
	{
		title = "Victory!";
		subtitle = "All towns taken";
		description = "Your team took the towns from enemy";
	};
};

 

I have the condition code too but I won't post it here to keep the post short.

 

now I could end the mission like this for all players:

 

"victory" remoteExecCall ["BIS_fnc_endMission", winnerside]; // winnerside is side that won

 

 

But is that sufficient?

This should be OK (sorry, I can't test it so far). On the other hand, you have the  "SideScore" call BIS_fnc_endMissionServer;

 

I'm not sure with that, but the cfgDebriefing and the cfgDebriefingSections  worth for both endMission and endMissionServer  functions. If not, your approach seems OK.

Well I looked into the code of BIS_fnc_endMissionServer and it seems to just call BIS_fnc_endMission on all clients. So I was on the right track with my solution.
