[HELP] Local Limit?

[Snake]

For some reason I am having severe problems on trying to add a 4th local side. I remember seeing somewhere that you can go up to 7 or 8 but I have checked everything and all my .lua codes are set up right, and my CP is set up right. Every time I try to play the game with this 4th local side the game just starts the victory count down. I've only seen this occur when I do something wrong in setting up a CP but I have quadruple checked everything, and even started from scratch with a different side file. If I take the CP and lua codes out everything works fine. Any ideas?

it could be a bug in the mission lua itself, or the sides, hard to say without more info. have you tried sptest? can you post the mission LUA with 4 locals and a screenshot of the CP settings in zeroeditor?

[Snake]

Yeah, SPTest isn't much help with a map this huge. There's so many "nuisance" error messages that it isn't so helpful.

Here's the lua:

Right now all of the stuff relating to team six is marked out

And the CP:


Although, could it possibly be a CP limit? Because this would be CP number 17. Most of the CP's are invisible.

---

Ok, I tried giving the CP to team 2 and the whole thing just crashes now. With the local side it starts the victory countdown but with team 2 it crashes... Yet another reason why I am retiring after this. I have stared and stared at the CP settings and all the regions/paths and everything is perfect. The only possible explanation is Sally is just being a scumbag today or there is a CP limit at 16 CP's.

Luckily this local side is not crucial to the map. It was just a little side thing I wanted to add. I guess I'll just leave it be.

---

On a side note, what's up with my rank bar thing..?

[Phobos]

I'm not sure if the ZE limit is 16 cps but if it is, you could try adding a vehicle command post instead to see if that stops the crashing. The LUA looks fine I don't think that is the cause.

[Snake]

It turns out that it is true, the CP limit is 16. I deleted one of my other CP's and the new CP started working fine.
