Hi, looking for some help with map markers, I got map markers working, but they only show for the first person who joins the server, this is what I am using


if (isServer) then {

_unit_0 = objNull;
if (true) then
{
_this = createMarker ["NWAF Aircraft Dealer", [4973.7749, 9948.7354, -338.98291]];
_this setMarkerText "NWAF Aircraft Dealer";
_this setMarkerType "Dot";
_this setMarkerColor "ColorGreen";
_this setMarkerBrush "Solid";
_marker_0 = _this;
};
};

did you add it the same way to follow suit in the mission.sqm?

edit your mission.sqm find class markers add this to the last block change the item no and update the items=; at the start of class markers and change the color if you want.

        class Itemnumberhere
        {
            position[]={4973.7749, 9948.7354, -338.98291};
            name="NWAF Aircraft Dealer";
            text="NWAF Aircraft Dealer";
            type="mil_dot";
            colorName="ColorGreen";
        };

thanks for all your help. its now sorted thanks to juandayz first post, I was just double checking every and noticed markers.sqf was saved as markers.sqf.sqf

 

I wish I could say this was the first time something so simple and stupid stopped me doing things but its not.

 

:huh:

@Tech_Support way works too... you only need to change the coords...  last coord must be in the middle and the middle  at last. see

originals coords from arma editor

4973.7749, 9948.7354, -338.98291

in mission.sqm must be:

4973.7749,-338.98291, 9948.7354
