[Problem with script please help]

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

[Random Spawn Generator script]

Hi all

I thort that I would share this script that I have made.

I know that it may not be up to the high standards of some of the scripts on here :0

but if it helps some on with there missions all the better.

The reason that I made the script was that I could not find what I was after and I found it a good learning process.

Any how here it is have fun with it.
