I'm Missing something here? But I don't know what.

What did I do wrong?  Did I overlook something simple, or is it all wrong?  Why does it work for me, but not for someone else?  I need to get it to work on a regular dedicated server, any suggestions?  As always any assistance will be greatly appreciated. 

[Mr.Peanut]

Put [Pilot, Wreck] exec "MovePilot.sqs" in your init.sqs instead of a unit init field.

[Landdon]

It is in the Ini.sqs file. I have attached the files below.  Could it be in conflict with another script?    This makes my head hurt, please tell it will get better!!!  I don't have any hair left! LOL

[Mandoble]

Your init.sqf is a weird mixture 

Seems you did a copy/paste of mando_remote.intro init.sqs there, so you have SQF code and SQS code in an SQF script.

To add there that AFAIK, setPos of static objects (downed chopper) needs to be executed in every client, setPos only populates the position if you use it with vehicles.

[ViperMaul]

Landdon,

As of 1.08 there has been a change in setPos for static objects.
Feel free to read Suma's comments. It should work globally now for MP with static objects.
