I'm at a loss, I've been looking around and following guides, reading assets, trying out some stuff on my own. I've done some things I liked, they looked promising, but alas they don't work.

I followed this tutorial http://www.gametoast.com/forums/viewtop ... +scripting

And when I was finished I munged, got 2 errors which I fixed, then tested the map. When I played it I got a CTD and an error screen did not pop up. I checked the error log and I think this is the error:

Code: Select all

Message Severity: 2
C:\Battlefront2\main\Battlefront2\Source\LuaCallbacks_Mission.cpp(3776)
Command Post "cp1" not found
(none):0: attempt to perform arithmetic on a nil value

For one I don't understand why it can't find cp1, everything in ZE is set up correctly. I don't know what the rest means.

Here is my lua, it's called VVVc_con

Okay something I noticed ( I could be wrong, I don't have much experience in BF2 lua scripting so i'm just assuming right now. Make sure you back your lua up. )

Everything I commented out ( with the -- ) and made yellow shouldn't be in your script(I don't think

). You just set up your objectives and now you're telling the game that you want a conquest objective. You are basically adding two totally unrelated objectives at once. You need to take out the conquest part of your script. Do that by adding a -- in front of the lines that I highlighted in your script (that way if it doesn't work you can just backspace the -- and be back to normal). But try that.

Thank you so much! What you said to do worked! The rest I think I'll have to figure out on my own, because when I spawn, no one else does, and no objectives show up or anything. Other than that thank you thank you thank you!

You can also comment out blocks of code easily like this:

Code: Select all

--[[
line of code
line of code
line of code
line of code
line of code
line of code
line of code
]]

^To uncomment the entire block simply remove these:
--[[
]]

If you use a proper code editor they usually have tools that can comment and uncomment entire blocks of code with a single click.

like notepad++, it saved my life when I got it

thanks though, I didn't know about that one.
