Hi guys,
I spend the whole day to figure out, why a lot of Reammo-Scripts for ArmA3 work in the editor, but they won't work on the server. Maybe some of the "nerds" ;) can explain why...?
Have two favorite Scripts working in the Editor, but not on server:
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
/*
Vehicle Repair, Refuel, Rearm Pad
CREATED BY: =7Cav=CW2.Iher.I
VERSION: v1
RELEASE DATE: March 3, 2013
WEBSITE: www.7thcavalry.us
-------------------------------
ABOUT THE SCRIPT
-------------------------------
The vehicle pad script included here is a script that instantly facilitates the ability to rearm, repair, and refuel any vehicle in ArmA III.
Originally, the vehicle pad script was considered a private script used only in 7th Cavalry training servers.
I decided that due to the lack of support trucks in the ArmA III Alpha, the public might benefit from a script that lets them service their vehicles.
This script is an adaptation of the script we use on our training servers.
Eventually I will release an ArmA III adapted version of our aircraft failure scripts for use by the public.
I hope you enjoy this script.
-------------------------------
FEATURES
-------------------------------
- NO MODS REQUIRED!
- Can be tweaked by the mission developer to included longer repair, refuel, and rearm times.
- The script is multiplayer friendly!
- Simple 2-step intallation to get your mission up and running in no time.
- Ability to make ANY trigger area a refuel, rearm, repair area.
-------------------------------
INSTALLATION
-------------------------------
1) REQUIRED - Place a trigger on your map. The defined area of the trigger in the editor translates to the area a vehicle must enter to be serviced.
2) REQUIRED - Ensure that the trigger is set to be activated repeatedly and may be activated by anyone or whomever you wish it to be activated by.
3a) REQUIRED - FOR LAND VEHICLES, PLACE THIS IN THE TRIGGER CONDITION.
("LandVehicle" countType thislist > 0) && ((getpos (thislist select 0)) select 2 < 1)
3b) REQUIRED - FOR AIR VEHICLES, PLACE THIS IN THE TRIGGER CONDITION AND REPLACE TRIGGERNAME WITH THE NAME OF THE TRIGGER.
(getPos ((list triggername) select 0) select 2) <= 1
4) REQUIRED - Place the following into the Trigger On Act field.
_xhandle= (thislist select 0) execVM "x_reload.sqf";
- This ensures that the script fires upon trigger activation.
5) REQUIRED - Copy & Paste the included x_reload.sqf into your mission file.
6) REQUIRED - Export your mission to pack it into a PBO. Enjoy!
-------------------------------
TECHNICAL / MODIFICATIONS
-------------------------------
To change the speed at which the pad performs repair, rearm, and refuel services:
1) OPEN FILE: x_reload.sqf
2) FIND LINE OF CODE (x_reload_time_factor = 0.01;): This controls how fast the script runs
3) CHANGE TO DESIRED VALUE.
-------------------------------
VERSION CHANGE LOG
-------------------------------
1.1 - New conditions to increase reliability, especially with air vehicles. Included sample mission and changed readme.
1.0 - Initial release

And my top favorite, that work on server only, if you are an infi-Admin. Works not if you are a normal Player or an Epoch-Admin....
Could not figure out what to do, so that it will work with infi and for normal player, turned all variables in infi config to false, but still the script is not availeble for normal player.
So could someone figure out, what's going wrong?
Need a little push in a right direction :ph34r:
