setPlayable workaround

[aozyaman 0]

Just in case others have the same problem:

When trying to dynamically create spawnable units for Multi Player missions, the command setPlayable always crashes the server, or it simply doesn't work. So I tried using addSwitchableUnit, which I thought was only for single player Team Switching. And guess what, it works just fine for MP too

So if you ever have a use for setPlayable in an MP scneario and are having problems with it, use addSwitchableUnit instead.

This problem had been p***ing me off for some time, and I thought I'd share the workaround.

Happy scripting

Does this work on dedicated servers, too?

I do not write in ingles, I hope that it is understood.

So that he walks to switchplayer well, the soldier must be local to the PC of the PLAYER. He is to say that createUnit in the same PC is due to use that tries to change of personage.

for PCs non server:

_ sold =... createUnit...;

selectPlayer _ sold;
