I can&#39;t get any init handler to work.
I&#39;ve tried
_this
this
_this select 0
this select 0
Its like the game doesn&#39;t even register that the unit initiated. WTF is going on??? No other scripts or units are present in the mission this is bugging the hell out of me. HELP&#33;&#33;&#33;
Also changing the event call to something like &#39;killed&#39; or &#39;hit&#39; makes it work. So is Arma not using the init handler or what???

I never understood init events... also since you are adding this AFTER the object was created, what would make the init fire??

[Sakura_Chan]

but it doesn&#39;t work after respawn either (I assume that it should be run again?) if not how can you apply an init handler to a unit without changing its config?

try [this]

[UNN]

The init event, assigned with the script commands for units. Only fires when the unit gets out of a vehicle. Not when it&#39;s re-spawned.

I&#39;ve never played around with re-spawn scripts, so perhaps check out how others have done it?

Init eventhandler is more useful for mods, where it&#39;s set in the config.
