ELT Homing in multiplayer?

[Nybble]

Hi all, I'll keep it short and sweet.

 

Just wondering if the ELT Radio Homing is supposed to work in multiplayer?

 

I can create a server and as host I can pick up the beacon and its sound, however my clients connecting cannot.

 

That's all, thanks!

which mission?

which mission?

 

One that I made myself.

 

But also I took the Elbrus Mountain Rescue mission and added 2 client slots.

Then when I hosted the server I could pickup the beacon but my friend could not.

In MP if you have a transmission and a client joins the server after this transmission was triggeret then he can not receive it.

 

In Elbrus Rescue the transmission begins with the mission start. That is the reason why the clients can not receive the transmission. (they join too late)

 

In MP you have consider this. But there are some workarounds possible.

(e.g. "re-trigger" transmission via F10 menu etc.)

Thanks sorcer3r! I'll give that a shot!

 

EDIT: Any tips on how to set that up?
