Could some one have a look and tell me what I am doing wrong

thanks

if (!isServer) exitWith {};
_pos    = _this select 0;
_area   = _this select 1;
_Num       = _this select 2;
_dist   = _this select 3;
_side   = _this select 4;
_type = _this select 5;

private ["_pos","_area","_Num","_dist","_side","_type"];
_skill  = [0.6,1];

_a = "SkeetDisk";// obj to use as spawn place.

for [{_i = 0},{_i < _Num},{_i = _i + 1}] do
{
_newpos = GetPos _pos;
 _posX = _newpos select 0;
  _posY = _newpos select 1;
   if ( isNil "ob_u" ) then { ob_u = 0 };
   ob_u = ob_u+ 1;
   _mar = format["ob%1", ob_u ];
  _mar = _a createVehicle[(_posX + random _area)-_area/2, (_posY + random _area)-_area/2,0];

 switch (_side) do

It would help a lot if you would tell what that script should do and what the problem is.

Also please use code tags when posting scripts and not spoiler tags.

[xPaveway 10]

Also your thread title is not descriptive.

What are you trying to do?

What is it doing when you try to run it?

What have you tried to fix it?

[OzeRick 10]

HI all

Sorry about all that.

What I am trying to do is

1. spawn a object in a random area with a name,that part works no problem.

2. have it so that if you put say "ammor" for _type it will pick the correct path and spawn the required vehicles.

3.I am runnig it from a trigger from radio just for testing.

4.Well I am really just trying to learn how scritping work

thanks

[xPaveway 10]

Yeah but whats the problem

[OzeRick 10]

Well the problem is that it is not working :0

If I brake the script apart and run the single parts it work's, but as a hole it is not.

I think it is in the way I am useing the If, then, else, switch, but I have no idear.

thats way I am asking for help
