Von Quest 1161 Posted May 26, 2019 Okay, this is a weird one. I'm going nutz!.... Working on my projects, for some odd reason the Game does detect there are changes, as it throws errors. But its NOT detecting the very FIRST File we all use... the Init.sqf File. Any of you other wizards out there have any insight to this? This makes NO SENSE to me! Everything else is correct, spelling, file-paths, etc. as I can force the files/code via calling things manually in the debug console. But when I add "hint" and/or "systemChat" (to check) into the init file, nothing is being displayed to indicate its running that file at start-up. Its like its still running an OLD version of the init.sqf file, but not the new one. All other files, code, images, configs, etc all update just fine.

JohnKalo 657 Posted May 26, 2019 More likely to find help here: https://forums.bohemia.net/forums/forum/154-arma-3-mission-editing-scripting/ Have you tried erasing and then re-creating the init.sqf file? Have never had an issue with the init.sqf but with triggers.... All was fixed when I erased the old trigger and placed a new one writing the exact same things. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GEORGE FLOROS GR 4206 Posted May 26, 2019 6 hours ago, Von Quest said: its NOT detecting the very FIRST File we all use... the Init.sqf File. Hello there Von Quest ! Just use a working init.sqf , delete everything from the current file and do a test if your code is working , by using in the end a diag_log or a notification , like hint or systemchat. Have in mind , that it is noticed , that some times , when you copy paste codes from the forum, there might not work at all , because of an extra "blank" character after the end of a line , that you might haven't notice. I have already post this problem several times. So generally check your codes as well. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Von Quest 1161 Posted May 27, 2019 SOLVED Okay, this is embarrassing... Rookie mistake. It was just your basic File-Path/Workflow issue. My projects are years old, and 100,000+ lines of code. I ended up having to re-organize some things a while back, and forgot to remove the OLD workflow, so the OLD files were still there but obsolete. After some sleep, I just traced the workflow A-B-C-D, etc from scratch, and realized (facepalm) that I had changed the workflow to skip A altogether, and start at B.
