UpdatePositionVehicle, UpdateAIUnit, UpdatePositionMan, AIStatsMPRowUpdate, UpdateDamageVehicleAI? What do these mean and how can I write my mission so that these errors do not happen?

Thanks!

only BI knows for sure, but keep this in mind:

all errors are dumped in ArmA.rpt - not only caused by your mission/work.

so these are likely to be engine/config/whatever problems by ArmA itself

I use this file all the time when i cant find the error in my missions.

but the problem its so general and some errors are so useless to report like this one:

Warning Message: No player was selected!

Anyway if non of those erros show up ingame (the black box with the white text) then everyting sould be fine.

Especially when using some 3rd party addons I have found that quite a lot of warning/error messages get generated into this file. A sign of not properly made addons, as the BIS units do not generate the same warning/error messages. But as there is so little official documentation and official tools for ArmA addon making published to date, it's no wonder.

Warning Message: No player was selected!

That one means that the mission that caused the error doesn't have a unit marked as player. Probably most common in mp missions where all playables tend to be marked as playable instead of player.

I know thats why i tink its the most useless error report most of my missions dont even have a player unit in them at the end of development, in my report i had that one like 20 times afther each other.

Well that is why I am posting here... in the hopes that BIS will reply.

@the unknown

You can always jut put a player in there to supress the error. Units marked player can be selected in the player placement screen just like playables I think. The only difference is that player also carries special connotations in sp and only 1 unit can be player. I suggest you check that to be sure, but I'm pretty sure it's right.

the unknown · November 27, 2004

The player unit will be the top unit in the selection screen atleast it was like that in OFP, anyway I tink we are getting a bit offtopic.

I've added http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/arma.RPT and will try to add to it when I figure out what each problem is caused by.

I added the no player selected error plus colsanders solution. I was going to create this very wiki topic once I saw your post a couple of days ago. Nice work.

I get that one too in those exact same locations. It happens with no mods enabled and has been there since I don't know what version. If I had to guess, I'd say it's caused by something the game doesn't like on the sara island. I'm not sure what exactly it is though.
