[CopyrightPhilly]

very basic question..

i know this might sound stupid but i couldnt find anything in the command ref so..

edit: also is it possable to make the marker only visable by one side (west or east)

cheers, Philly

1) You can't.
2) Dunno.

You could delete or empty the marker and replace it with a similar one with different text.    The similar one is stored somewhere type empty while it is not being used.

Presumably this is for MP.    I don't know much about MP but I believe scripts are local:    probably you could run a script on each computer that checks the side of the local player and displays/hides markers accordingly.     But don't quote me on that.

Or place the changed one waayy of the map
And then store the getpos result in a varable..
Delete the marked
And setpos the changed marker to the position you stored in a varable

I think the idea about checking if the person running the script is right.. I'm not that good at MP script at all either though
