Does anyone have a way to keep Excelsior Bridge from rotating on restarts?

DangerRuss · Feb 3, 2014

Ive tried Excelsior Bridge in my root missions/init.sqf method, and in my root server/ server_functions.sqf and it seems fine for a couple days but then inevitably starts rotating after server restarts and becomes unusable. Does anyone else have this issue, if so did you correct it, and if so how? Thanks

Kinda old but put it in your MPMission (mission.pbo)'s mission.sqm

DangerRuss · Feb 11, 2014

I could try that method but its the only one that gives me trouble and I almost don't care enough haha. Maybe I will. I think I read somewhere that it happens on vilayer servers for some reason, I don't know if that's true or not. Guess I'll give it a shot at some point. It usually fine for the first few days after I put it on the server and then a few days later it starts turning after the restarts. It seems to start doing it infrequently but it begins to happen more and more often.

mission.sqm is only place where it doesn't rotate.

dracondarks · Feb 12, 2014

i tried it in my mission.sqm and it still rotated.

Thanks for saving me the trouble. Ill just leave it off

no problem man glad to help save you the trouble.

i tried this posted by AlienX and it seems to work for me the bridge don't rotate or sink here it is

Code:

// Excelsior Bridge
// The land_nav_pier_m_2 is the double fenced bridge floor. These can be changed to land_nav_pier_m_1 and spun 180 if you wanted only 1 fence.

// Installation
// Make sure to make a folder inside the mission file called "buildings" and save this file in there as "excbridge.sqf"
// Then add the following line as the VERY LAST line in in the "init.sqf" file.
// [] execVM "buildings\excbridge.sqf";

// Props to Rossymond for pointing out the new install method.

// Excelsior
// Server: Death DealerZ - DayzChernarus

You mean the 'mission.sqf'?

I run the ExcelsiorBridge.sqf from my dayz_server.pbo and initialize it through server_functions.sqf and have never had an issue with it.

no he means there mission.sqm which is in the root of your missions folder. There are 3 ways off the top of my head to add buildings to the map. 1.server_functions.sqf 2. init.sqf 3. mission.sqm

Ive tried all but the mission.sqm cause its a pain in the ass and the bridge eventually rotates. I think it has something to do with my server host.

Does anyone have a way to keep Excelsior Bridge from rotating on restarts?
