When you add a script file to your mission folder, go back to the editor and save your mission again BEFORE previewing it. That will fix your problem.

Briefly, everytime you add a script, save your mission.

Okay, a couple of things .... Make sure you have put this script "paradrop.sqs" in the correct mission folder.

i.e. OPflash/Users/(Username)/Missions/(NameOfMission)

Also check the spelling of the script and wherever you called (exec) the script from a trigger or WP,etc. If you're off a letter, that could be it.

i.e.:
Trigger -West -Present
On Activation:
P1 Exec "paradrop.sqs"

Are u sure u have typed correctly? The standard is [] exec "paradrop.sqs", NOT sgs. And I dont have to save my mission when I add a script... just addons, I have to quit OFP when I add those :-\

You noly have to re-save the mission if you have changed the description.ext (like if u added the sound.)

Also, usually you have to give an Array for parachuting scripts.

Just follow the instructions with the script. And make sure u place it in the mission folder

1) make sure its in the mission folder youre working on
2) Make sure the sqs filename is spelled right and matches the name in the trigger menu
