Mission script not working

[Mathu]

Been trying for quite some hours now getting mission script working. The thing is that nothing happens, the mission won't spawn. As the remote_messages thread was down, I googled a bit around, and found this, and then later added that instead of the other remote_messages script. Still, nothing happens. Would appreciate some help! :) Here's my codes:

 

Init.sqf

EpochEvents = ["any","any","any","any",7,"Construction"],

Construction.sqf:

private ["_spawnChance", "_spawnMarker", "_spawnRadius", "_markerRadius", "_item", "_debug", "_start_time", "_loot", "_loot_amount", "_loot_box", "_wait_time", "_spawnRoll", "_position", "_event_marker", "_loot_pos", "_debug_marker","_loot_box", "_hint"];
_spawnChance =  1; // Percentage chance of event happening
_markerRadius = 350; // Radius the loot can spawn and used for the marker
_debug = false; // Puts a marker exactly were the loot spawns
_loot_box = "USVehicleBox";
_loot_lists = [

Hello,

 

I had the same problem as you and I was searching for a solution on Google today. Instead of finding an answer I came to this topic. So instead I figured it out myself.

The "EpochEvents = ["any","any","any","any",7,"Construction"]," is correct, so you are saying spawn construction crate every 7 minutes. The next thing is that your script "Construction.sqf:" contains a line saying 

if (isNil "EPOCH_EVENT_RUNNING") then {
EPOCH_EVENT_RUNNING = false;
};

just comment out the bit inside the two brackets. so it looks like this

if (isNil "EPOCH_EVENT_RUNNING") then {
//EPOCH_EVENT_RUNNING = false;
};

Then from this point it should work. You should have the crate spawning every 7 minutes.
