Multiplayer R828 and embarking

[lukynoo92]

Hi all,

 

I´ve tested latest patch (1.2.16.xxx). In SP everything works OK. I catched ARK-UD signal with my own presets frequencies on R828 (I created wehicles, which transmitted signal). I tried embark soldiers, and everything works very well. I also tried set internal cargo (up to 5 000kg) and it also worked. But when I turn on multiplayer. Set internal cargo function doesn´t work for anybody. Embarking function and R828 is working only for pilot, who created server. Other pilots cannot catch R828 signal (on SP it is working) and cannot embark soldiers, it writes only Roger, Roger, Roger........(if they ask for embarking), but nothing happens.

Only host can receive a transmitted signal, you have to make a loop if you want that all clients receive also.

Same problem for me with embarking function, my buddy host the game and when i try to embark troops, i got only "roger, roger" etc.

They mention somewhere that troop embarking works in singleplayer but not in multiplayer. For a ARK-UD I'm not sure.

Yes. Tried this in my squad and indeed embarking function does not work in MP. So we stayed with CTTS script which is working for both SP and MP.

Don't understand why it is such a big deal to have this command work in MP though.

In a previous version it worked in MP somehow but it caused warping on a server. So instead of fixing it seems they decided to deactivate it in MP.

Sadly, not a suprise that we have to wait some years until some features are also working in MP.

If you use a CTTLD script for that, every player " client" must be name helicargo1 helicargo2 etc... and it should work well for the F10 load menu.

 

don't know for the R828 but for ARK9 it's Ok with a loop, see the code in this mission if it can help :

Snowsniper. Thank you so much. I downloaded and edited CTLD. It is almost perfect, because it works in multiplayer too, but it doesn´t simulate addition weight to the heli :-/
