What its suppost to do, you place a empty vehicle on the map with this code in in the init "vehicles = vehicles + [this]" when the vehicle is moved and destroyed the vehicle will respawn back at its original place after a few moments.

why i want the script im making a HOLD map a big one for many players and im sick atm when all the players get their vehicles destroyed and they don&#39;t spawn back and everyone else has to run miles to get to there objective.

Im making a HOLD mission like BIS&#39;s HOLD The Castle But Mines Hold Camp Dead http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/biggrin_o.gif

I don&#39;t see anything off hand why this wouldn&#39;t work. Are you having a problem of some kind?

[MattXR]

Nevermind was no problem got it working.

Yeah the vehicles are staying destroyed and not spawning back.
I edited vrs.sqs script, now it&#39;s a lot more simple but it works.

Original script credits:

;;BEGIN vrs.sqs
;;By KaRRiLLioN
;;VehicleType Loop by Sefe
;;Original script by Backoff
;;Updated for 1.75 by Jaeger Neo
;;IMPORTANT: ADD A GAMELOGIC NAMED Server
;;to the mission to prevent multispawn

Simple version:

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">
?&#33;&#40;local Server&#41;&#58; Goto &#34;end&#34;
_vcl = _this select 0
_position=Getpos _vcl
_dir=Getdir _vcl

_respawndelay = 5

#mainloop
@<hidden> &#40;damage _vcl &#62;0.7&#41;
~_respawndelay

deleteVehicle _vcl
_vcl = &#34;UAZMG&#34; createVehicle _position
_vcl setdir _dir

goto &#34;mainloop&#34;

#end
Exit

[/QUOTE]

Just add [this] exec "vr.sqs" to the init field of every vehicle.
Also change UAZMG with the vehicle type.

Try bigger values of damage for this line: @<hidden> (damage _vcl >0.7)
Also you can check if there is no driver or gunner inside before deleting the vehicle.


Hope it helps

Um... not sure if any of you noticed this (http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/respawnVehicle) before... but I&#39;d hate to see you waste a lot of time on this script, or maybe I&#39;m too late.  http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/whistle.gif

Still, if it works, it&#39;s surely going to give you better performance. Worth a shot. http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/wink_o.gif

Just tried the BIS way it doesn&#39;t work.

Just tried the BIS way it doesn&#39;t work.
Hmm... you sure you used it correctly? I figured BIS must have used it if they put it in there, have you looked at any of the MP missions?

Edit:

Quote[/b] ]Edit:
Just saw your other topic on this, and to say BIS way doesn&#39;t work, is complete BS. Here is a working example that it works.
From your other thread, apparently it does work. You must have used it incorrectly or something. I really hope it does work though.
