Trigger variables & JIP

[satexas69 0]

I have a trigger on my mission that announces the start of a wave when the players get close to the enemy city at the beginning of my mission.

It's simple, it's a trigger that's set to "once" and fires off a text message.

Easy. Common.

But if a player joins up late in the mission, say 30 minutes after that trigger's already fired - it fires again.

How can I set some type of variable (like a flag - "trigger1firedoff=true" ) so that way when JIP's join, they don't get that/those types of late triggers?

Try this script. I use it for late arrivals to run "weapons_respawn" script because otherwise they spawn without weapons.

There are options for specifying wether to run or not run the script or command for JIP.

JIP script

@Wittmann - In your init.sqf you ahve the following condition: (local server or !local player)

I feel like a noob for asking, but when , if ever, is !local player true?

dedicated server has no player

But a dedicated server never has a player.

Edit: Never mind. I now understand it is to make sure player unit has been created from JIP.
