there is a link to the script

maybe it's just my pc but then again the map didn't work on anyone's computer my brother often host maps and such he hosted it and then i tried and multiple times it changes it back and gives said error.


update: after a few times of testing i have discovered that it not fully working might be do to the fact that it requires no rush to be turned on to render all the units i am not fully certain this is the case but i'm gonna test that myself and such.

update 2: after testing such things no rush is preferred but not required from what i can tell it might be a glitch online playing the map and such maybe turning on the settings and fixing them properly would fix the glitch i'm not fully certain as of yet

Code:
arbitary options have been selected


means that the creator of the map tried to set the key of the option as default value of the option. This doesnt work since the default value is the number of the option that it is supposed to be.

Example:
Code:
(option number*), (name**), (key value***)
1) Option 1: key 20
2) Option 2: key 40
3) Option 3: key 60


a lot of survival maps have a default value using the key instead of the option number:
Code:
default = 40

The game will then try to use Option 40 as default option (which doesnt exist) and thus triggering this error.

* position of the option in the option list
** name of the option, i.e. startup time
*** value for the option that is handed over to the game, i.e. 20 seconds startup time


The lobby shows this warning and then uses the first option as the fallback solution. However, the actual key value of the option (the code often relies of this value being set somewhere) is ONLY given to the map script when the option is changed. In case it is not changed to a non-default value, the variable is not set inside the script, which can and will cause all sorts of problems.

from
Survival_Campaign_v1c.v0002
to
survival_5thdimension_v3.v0001 none of them seem to work at all

so i was wondering if anyone knew a work around to make them work because see when run on the game from steam the maps work great but when run from faf the maps give the error listed above.
