[SOLVED] Warlords mission SAVE/LOAD

[Bombardyn 0]

I recently made my own Warlords scenario in Eden editor and everything worked fine, until I ran on a serious problem. After playing the scenario on a server I made and making some progress on the map, I saved the game and quit. The next day I loaded the saved game, still on the server I made, and then a problem occurred. I couldn't open the Warlords buying menu and the voting system stopped working. It seems like after I load the saved game, the Warlords Init just stops working.
How to make something similair to this?

I have downloaded this scenario and the saving and loading does acually work.
When I searched through this scenarios files, I couldn't figure out how to replicate it. I don't need the air support and all the other stuff, only the save and load option.
Here is the steam page of this map and a tutorial how to put downloaded maps into the editor:

I'm going to do a vanilla mission at a steam workshop. You can then copy.

Yes it is working properly.
I have subscribed it on steam and put it into my editor scenarios with help of this video:

Then I coppied the "Addons" folder to my scenario and "commonInitScript", "init", "initPlayerLocal" and "cfgMissionParams" files.
After that I had adjusted the Warlords init settings in "cfgMissionParams" file and had put this code from the "description file" of your scenario:

//#include "\A3\Missions_F_Warlords\defaultDescription.inc"    //Edit


#include "cfgMissionParams.hpp"    //Edit

 

on top of my "description.ext".

When it was done i tested the scenario and the saving works properly. There is only one minor isue I detected. After saving and disconnecting and later loading and joining, the speaker says her announcement multiple times, for example she is saying "voting for the next sector" three times. It is a little annoying, but not a big deal after all.

I want to thank you Kanas for your help, I appreciate it.

I fixed the LoadGame.sqf script. Repeated messages are deleted.

Am i supposed to replace the old script from LoadGame.sqf with the new one?

Because when i did the script stopped working.

[Kanas Kanas 2]

I updated the mission at the steam workshop. Everything should work.

[Bombardyn 0]

Nevermind,  i coppied the new LoadGame.sqf and it works again.

I detectend another problem but i'm not sure if it's an error in youre saving script or in arma 3  itself.

When you play for example opfor, than save and quit, and after loading and reconnecting you choose to play Blufor, a problem occurs.

If you enter any zone while playing the blufor unit in these circumstances, the game tell you to leave the zone and if you don't, you die.

Is it possible to fix that?

I'm sorry, this can't be fixed. You must play the same unit as before saving. Function is enabled in description.EXT (joinUnassigned = 0); , so that when entering the hall, the last unit is automatically selected.

So was this ever solved without having to copy that code into where ever and getting PBO extraction programs to use on that no longer functioning Workshop mission link?
After making a simple Warlords module single player mission in the Editor, whenever I load a saved game, the Warlords module game mode no longer works (Warlords menu doesn't open, CP count no longer displayed...). However, this only happens in save games loaded AFTER Save&Exit. Otherwise, loading works fine, you can play the session with loading as long as you never quit. Is there a fix for this or mod module to add to the mission in the editor to make it work?

So is the code that kanas posted the "loadgame.sqf" ? 
all the links are dead so i cant get to anything, 
I would just be curious if it was solved with a script that ran when a player joins or something. I would be more than comfortable, not switching sides as well as playing as the same entity. 
If it is that easy I can unpack my pbo throw an sqf in and add an execution script.
If anyone is out there that has these files to use or knows where they now reside I would appreciate it.
