createTrigger and MP problems

[gnosis 0]

I'm hoping someone here can shed some light on something that is driving me to excessive drinking.

I'm trying to create triggers through scripts but I can't for my life get them to act the way that I'm expecting them to do.

I use createTrigger to set a trigger for scoring on a SC type map. When it is activated a script starts a loop that gives a score at predetermined intervals and titleText some info.

If I create the trigger on server local, it triggers but it does not propagate through the network, ie. the titleText is not showing to clients.

If I create the trigger on clients only, it works fine when I'm testing the script alone. But as soon as a second client connects the triggers multiply and the scoring script starts running twice.

First I created the triggers as private vars and thought that might be an issue so I did global vars on each trigger. Same issue.

if (!local server) then {

trig = createTrigger["EmptyDetector", getMarkerPos "Flag1"];

<snip>

trig setTriggerStatement["this && gameover != 1", "execVM 'scoring.sqf'; titleText['Sector 1 captured', 'PLAIN'];", ""];

};

Taking away the !local server condition will result in "Sector 1 captured" not being shown to clients.

Any help appreciated,

I'm pretty sure that titleText has a local only effect.

Change the score on the server only, display the titleText on the clients only.
