Task modules not functioning the way they are supposed to... e.g.task 2 wont assign or complete...
New, WishlistPublic

Description

i have watched all tutorials courtesy of Jester and H8ermaker.

i have made a simple template so i can use this if i get confused in future mission designing..

however i have managed to get task1 to work and auto assign and the destination is synced to a unit...

the second task creates... but does not auto assign or complete or show the destination when "module position is used" {F21169} {F21170} {F21171} {F21172}

I havent tried since last patch but I always use module position for the task destination and it always worked. I did not notice anything wrong when testing one of my missions earlier so im assuming its still working.

my module position (task destination) is always synced to the create task module.

just the first one shows up but then not the second :/ and its done the exact same way

Have you tried linking whatever triggers the second task to the second task destination as well?

hmm ill try that and report back asap

@blackjack your a ledgend!!!

maybe BIS could make using the modules a bit more easier Jesus!

only taken me a week to figure this shit out.

less syncing needs to be done its mental... you zoom out and its like wtffff

blue lines everywhere

the problem is back again..

@blackjack, this resolution no longer works for me for certain tasks lol
mostly task 2 and task 3

task 1 is fine.

i think triggers get overloaded and confused maybe

ive narrowed it down to the ASSIGN module itself!! sometimes this module does not fire and will make the destination module have only 50% chance of working.

i just played a mission i made and it included the assign module also.
1st preview everything worked.
2nd preview after adding more enemy units and it did not fire when the trigger was activated...

i removed the assigned module and (annoying i now have to click every task manually) it works.. sorta

i think the problem lies with the trigger itself not setting off all of its syncs...

maybe the trigger activation needs to be prolonged i reckon.
