Just as a quick question: you DID use the 1.09 BETA for this, right? Since addPublicVariableEventHandler is a 1.09-specific command, and if you tried to run it with 1.08 it'd probably give you some kind of error like the one above.

Otherwise, I don't know It's all "Spoonerish" to me!

Wolfrug out.

ahh well i dident think about that  after i thought shurely he woudlent do this because the server dosent run this, & i wouldent be able to test it  .


ok ill wait till the full 1.9 is out as ive always had bad problems with beta's with flashpoint engine lol

but if it works thats great!

thanks again guys! & ill get back to you when i can get the guys on Field assasins server to upgrade & test it.

Oops, I did clearly say that the change to using addPublicVariableEventHandler was for 1.09 beta, which most servers and people I'm aware of are using. Didn't think to ask whether you were using this patch at all...It just seemed like flogging a dead horse trying to fix an ugly workaround to handle events when the "real" event handlers were now available, which would make the solution more simple as well as work more of the time (SPON Events are fine, but when you have to use a separate publicVariable to send data types that they don't support, they can sometimes not work properly).

EDIT:
To continue in the 1.08 idiom, the publicVariable that I mentioned that I had forgotten was in "addSalvageHandler.sqf":

Code: (addSalvageHandler.sqf) [Select]

// Call this in every vehicle init with:
//  nil = [this] execVM "addSalvageHandler.sqf"
_vehicle = _this select 0;

_vehicle addEventHandler ["killed",
    {
        destroyedVehicle = _this select 0;
        publicVariable "destroyedVehicle";
        ["addSalvageAction", []] call SPON_publishGlobalEvent;
    }
];
