Works Flawlessly in my MP Mission Editor but when i add it to the server the guy just starts with his usual weapons. and not the ones the script gives.

Where and How exactly do you call the script?

I dunno, but me thinks that the "remote player" isn't there when the init of the unit is run.

I'd put that into the init.sqx file instead.
like

[player] exec "Loadouts\LRDLO.sqs"

No, I don't think so. Actually I'm pretty sure this works fine.

K, I haven't got any player related stuff executed from the init of any unit when playing MP.

[ManDay]

I had in some of my missions and if I don't remember it totally wrong it always worked fine. That's why I was asking how he calls the script. If he really does the way which is described in the comments I can't explain this phenoma either.

[MattXR]

i run this command in the players init.

Just tried, it seems [this] doesn't work properly, as far as my experience go [player] works better.

try this
I have used some parts of this code in an other script of mine.

Quote[/b] ]
RemoveAllWeapons _this;
RemoveMagazines _this;

hint "rearming!"
~0.5

_this addWeapon "M4SPR";
{_this addMagazine "30Rnd_556x45_Stanag"} forEach [1,2,3,4];
_this addMagazine "PipeBomb"

hint "script ok !"

exit;

modify accordingly depending the weapons of your choice.
