LSValmont 789 Posted February 27, 2019 Hello guys. I need your help once again. I have this line of code working perfectly for the Server Host: openMap true; MapClicked = false; onMapSingleClick "HHH setPos [_pos select 0,_pos select 1, 0] ;(group transportHeli) move _pos; MapClicked = true; onMapSingleClick ''; true;"; Where HHH is the name of a Helipad placed on the Eden Editor. That previous line does not work in MP of course since when a client calls the script the helicopter with crew (also placed via Editor) nor the Helipad move to the onMapSingleClick location. I've tried the following remoteExec code: onMapSingleClick "[HHH,[_pos select 0,_pos select 1, 0]] remoteExec ["setPos", HHH]; [(group transportHeli),[_pos]] remoteExec ["move", (group transportHeli)]; MapClicked = true; onMapSingleClick ''; true;"; But I get this error: Error SETPOS: TYPE ANY , EXPECTED OBJECT. If I remove: "[HHH,[_pos select 0,_pos select 1, 0]] remoteExec ["setPos", HHH]; And just leave: [(group transportHeli),[_pos]] remoteExec ["move", (group transportHeli)]; Then the error is: Error MOVE: TYPE ANY , EXPECTED OBJECT. But I double checked and the location of both the SetPos and Move commands on the remoteExec are in the correct location and should be working... BIS BUG? Any ideas on how I can solve this issue and/or any other method to get the client to move the server placed helicopter on command? Thanks in advanced.

LSValmont 789 Posted February 28, 2019 Ok, I got it to work with this: onMapSingleClick "[HHH,[_pos select 0,_pos select 1, 0]] remoteExec ['setPos', HHH]; [(group transportHeli),[getPos HHH select 0,getPos HHH select 1,0]] remoteExec ['move', (group transportHeli)]; {(group transportHeli) move [getPos HHH select 0,getPos HHH select 1,0];} remoteExec ['bis_fnc_spawn', 0]; MapClicked = true; onMapSingleClick ''; true;"; Just in case it is useful to someone. EDIT: Scratch all that... it is only working for the host again... and now with no errors... IDK why it is not working... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grumpy Old Man 3545 Posted February 28, 2019 Why remoteExec? setPos is global. Cheers 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The script is called via a custom UI interface with: Spoiler class text1: RscButton { text = "1.

(PS: I am quite new at MP scripting so you will find lots of redundancies in the script :() 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
