Can't get this script to start/initiate! What am I missing on this?

Need some help trying to get this script to run in my mission. The script is called - SpawnAircraft (random aircraft)

Create the number of planes you want and lead them on a target within a specified time or condition until they will be call back

By: Titi

to stop planes at any time use: attack_planes = false;

nul=[east,2,"start_plane","attack_plane","end_plane",600,120] spawn RandomAircraft;

Here is the Script

 if (!isServer) exitWith {};

EAST_RANDOM_AIRCRAFT = ["L39_TK_EP1","Su25_TK_EP1"];	

Private ["_side","_number_planes","_vcl_type","_pos_start", "_target_pos", "_pilot","_copilot","_end_pos", "_time_attack", "_altitude","_vcl", "_vcls", "_funits", "_grp", "_grpskill","_xxx", "_endtime"];

On the map you have a start plane marker and end plane marker on the far right and left side of the map.

The trigger locations on the map have this *activation- Blufor, once

*condations- this && isServer

*on act if- (isServer) then {nul=[east,1 ,"start_plane","attack_plane_1","end_plane",600,120] spawn RandomAircraft};

I used this script on an old domination edit by Titi that I played on a while back. I really like the script and the basic functionally of the planes during the mision. For some reason I can't get the script to run or initate in my mission. I looked in the mission init, description and the I_server to see if I was mission something that would start the script but I found nothing that would make the script run at the start of the mission. What am I mission on this. I know the script works great. I have played the edit many times. Any help like always would be great. AVIBIRD.

This may be a stupid question but have you defined that function before you called it?

You show this

nul=[east,2,"start_plane","attack_plane","end_plane",60 0,120] spawn RandomAircraft;

But do you have this?

RandomAircraft = compile preProcessFile "SpawnAircraft.sqf";
nul=[east,2,"start_plane","attack_plane","end_plane",60 0,120] spawn RandomAircraft;

Do you mean in the mission init no I only tryed this and this

[] execVM "scripts\SpawnRandomAircraft.sqf";

nul0 = [] execVM "scripts\SpawnRandomAircraft.sqf";

But like I said before I looked at the other missions that the script was in and did not see anything in the mission init or description. I will try to add that it goes in the mission inti right lol.

nul=[east,2,"start_plane","attack_plane","end_plane",60 0,120] execvm "SpawnRandomAircraft.sqf";

worked for me. Do you have a function module on the map and a unit of that side as well?

what is _crew = [_vcl, _grp] call d_fnc_spawnCrew;

shouldn't it be call bis_fnc_spawnCrew;

Hey f2k Sel lol should I have this nul=[east,2,"start_plane","attack_plane","end_plane",60 0,120] execvm "SpawnRandomAircraft.sqf"; in the mission init or on the map! You said it worked for you. I don't know what the _crew = [_vcl, _grp] call d_fnc_spawnCrew; is Titi write the script I just like how it plays in a mission. Very simple but gives random airsupport for but sides if you wanted.

You'd be better off using BIS_fnc_spawnVehicle... right now, you create an aircraft without any crew, unless you have a file referenced as d_fnc_spawnCrew.

These are sure to crash w/o crew. Also, your flyinHeight is set to 0 with your script call(_this select 6).

Do you have this file? scripts\deadremover.sqf

as long as your script is saved "SpawnRandomAircraft.sqf" this worked.

nul=[east,2,"start_plane","attack_plane","end_plane",60 0,120] execvm "SpawnRandomAircraft.sqf";

Without any crew until I changed it to _crew = [_vcl, _grp] call bis_fnc_spawnCrew; as I didn't have the other function.

I had no issue with the planes height. I didn't check any other aspects of the script.
