Arma 3 zeus editable objects

[chris4thewin 10]

hey, so I'm running into an issue where players that are on my server are not editable by Zeus. I put the add editable object module down with the following code 
 

Quote

if (isServer) then { 
 { 
  _x addCuratorEditableObjects [allUnits,true]; 
  _x addCuratorEditableObjects [vehicles,true]; 
 } forEach allCurators;             
}; 

The problem I'm having is the players are not showing up after they respawn

Any thoughts?

Your code is only running once, when the server initializes. You need to add a loop, something along the lines of:

0 =[] spawn {
    while {true} do {
        if (isServer) then { 
            { 
                _x addCuratorEditableObjects [allUnits,true]; 
                _x addCuratorEditableObjects [vehicles,true]; 
            } forEach allCurators;             
        }; 
        sleep 30;
    };
};

That is not a loop.

put a while {true} do {...}
around the if/then/sleep inside the spawn

Yes, of course, I have not been getting much sleep. Thanks!

Any reason placing the while loop after the server check is a bad idea?

0 =[] spawn {
    if (isServer) then { 
	    while {true} do {
            { 
                _x addCuratorEditableObjects [allUnits,true]; 
                _x addCuratorEditableObjects [vehicles,true]; 
            } forEach allCurators;   
            sleep 30;
        }; 
    };
};

No thats a good idea.

keep in mind though that always sending ALL units and ALL vehicles can cause quite a big amount of network traffic, which can also cause stuttering on clientside.

I would suggest to only add missing objects
 

_x addCuratorEditableObjects [allUnits - curatorEditableObjects _x,true];
_x addCuratorEditableObjects [vehicles - curatorEditableObjects _x,true];

Will take a bit more load on the server because of the filtering, but will greatly reduce network and clientside load.

And you generally don't care about microstutter on server, but you certainly do on client.

Excellent, thanks!
