Stealth Problems

Post by Dakota »

I've customized the stock stealth odf and it seems to work great and all until you get to multiplayer. In multiplayer the host can't see people using stealth but others can see him when he uses stealth. You see the balance problem here?

I was wondering if anyone had an explanation or a fix to this problem.

Here is my ODF. its in the side's odf folder not common.

Its being used in an era mod. The era mod is put on both stock and mod maps, but this issue has been around since before I added it to mod maps.
