JR Nova 24 Posted February 6, 2020 Hello I'm having some trouble making my mission work on dedicated servers. This is the code block which is causing problems init.sqf if (isServer) then { null=[true] execVM "waves.sqf"; [] execVM "unlocks.sqf"; null=[] execVM "support\request_support.sqf"; addMissionEventHandler ["EntityKilled", { params ["_killed", "_killer", "_killerID"]; if ((isPlayer _killer) && (alive _killer)) then { _killerID = owner _killer; [_killed] remoteExec ["lmo_killMoney", _killerID, false]; }; }]; }; This works fine on hosted servers, but on dedicated servers none of the code is ran. From my understanding (from this article), isServer should return true for both local hosted MP servers and dedicated servers. Am I doing something wrong? I also tried changing the first line to if (isServer || isDedicated) then { but the same thing happens, it works on local hosted MP but not on a dedicated server. I honestly have no idea what to do, as I have no dedicated server experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Here is a link to the mission on github Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its useless. 15 hours ago, JR Nova said: isServer should return true for both local hosted MP servers and dedicated servers. correct 15 hours ago, JR Nova said: none of the code is ran. Are you sure that NONE is running? have you tried adding logging? https://github.com/novakoda/Alamo/blob/Alamo/Alamo.Altis/init.sqf#L41-L48 compileFinal makes no sense here https://github.com/novakoda/Alamo/blob/Alamo/Alamo.Altis/init.sqf#L95 You are.. on the server waiting that a intro video shot is completed? Server has no AI, Server has no unit, it cannot follow a camera shot, that won't work. https://github.com/novakoda/Alamo/blob/Alamo/Alamo.Altis/init.sqf#L99 There is no player on server Why don't you just put your server-side only code into initServer.sqf? instead of putting it in init.sqf with a isServer check? I would recommend you move your draw3D into a function (to workaround the eventhandler recompile bug) and only use a single Draw3D handler, you are wasting quite some performance there. https://github.com/novakoda/Alamo/blob/Alamo/Alamo.Altis/init.sqf#L57 Don't use the old style eventhandlers, use the new one: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3:_Event_Handlers/addMissionEventHandler#PlayerDisconnected https://github.com/novakoda/Alamo/blob/Alamo/Alamo.Altis/init.sqf#L51 Server will never get past this, player is never initialized on server. https://github.com/novakoda/Alamo/blob/Alamo/Alamo.Altis/init.sqf#L28-L38 You should ALWAYS prefix your global variables. Like NOV_twr and such https://github.com/novakoda/Alamo/blob/Alamo/Alamo.Altis/init.sqf#L26 If a Player joins in progress that might mess up your stuff. https://github.com/novakoda/Alamo/blob/Alamo/Alamo.Altis/init.sqf#L5 This is absolute nonsense, player is either always local, or non existend (server) "local player" check never makes sense. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Naiss 28 Posted February 7, 2020 I would just create a new file called: initServer.sqf and then place all your server sided stuff into there 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
