Respawn Script Broken?
« on: April 22, 2016, 03:21:06 PM »
So I have made a template using assets from 2LT Ryan's Template. I have the description.ext with the following:

// Game Settings
respawn = "BASE";
respawnDelay = 5;
respawnDialog = 0;
disabledAI = 1; enableDebugConsole = 1;

All settings from his description.ext.
Then, in editor, placed an empty marker with the following:
"respawn_east"
because the mission template is for players to play CSAT. When in game to test it, the respawn doesn't work but instead, gives me the mission end screen. Any ideas on what could be bugging it out. My guess is maybe the new update but that's a far fetched accusation.
Thank you, Edward, D.

It's 1 of 3 things i think:

1. The new update <-- probably this one
2. The description.ext was converted from a bad file or you copied the mission in-game which only moves the mission.sqm into a new folder
3. Using 3DEN editor which sometimes will not overwrite the basic settings from 3DEN

Should I use one of your Eden templates. The issue though is that in that description.ext there is no respawn scripting inside!! How would I do it now?

Open the mission in Eden editor, go to one of the menus up to (I can't remember which one) and look for multiplayer options. In that screen you can change the settings for multiplayer games including respawn. You need to select respawn in custom marker and save and it should work.

Alright it worked. Thanks. I guess the description.ext is obsolete now for the most part.

It doesn't hurt to have it in there though I guess.
