Quick fix for Cement Mixers not showing up

[Kampexia 7]

Some people encounter a problem that cement mixers are not showing up on the server.
JUST delete the russian roullete and cement mixers code and paste this code in because it is not working anymore.

 

 

//Just place this line of code in the bottom of your initserver.sqf coordinates are from Exile.Altis

private ["_objs"];
_objs = [
    ["Exile_ConcreteMixer",[14354.5,18959.5,0],0,[[0,1,0],[0,0,1]],false],
    ["Exile_ConcreteMixer",[18309.4,15575,0.00109863],90,[[1,-4.37114e-008,0],[0,-0,1]],false],
    ["Exile_ConcreteMixer",[11391.2,14259.5,0.00148201],-40,[[-0.642788,0.766044,0],[0,0,1]],false]
];

{
    private ["_obj"];
    _obj = createVehicle [_x select 0, [0,0,0], [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"];
    if (_x select 4) then {
        _obj setDir (_x select 2);
        _obj setPos (_x select 1);
        _obj enableSimulationGlobal true;
    } else {
        _obj setPosATL (_x select 1);
        _obj setVectorDirAndUp (_x select 3);
        _obj enableSimulationGlobal true;
    };
} foreach _objs;

Never heard of an issue where cement mixers don't show up and that code above is in the default initServer.sqf for all supported maps....? 

Also, how does that fix whatever problem you had with Russian roulette? 

To confirm, I use the default code for Russian roulette and cement mixers and it works fine.....

@Kampexia -

I agree with @BaroN.  This is not really 'fixing' anything.  You found a 'work-around' to a pre-existing error that you have in your files.

While this may work, what about OTHER THINGS that you have NOT DISCOVERED YET?

I would advise you to start over.  Because the issue you state is a CLEAR INDICATION that you have errors in your files.

What else is wrong too? 

 

Thank you for the 'work-around' and sharing it though!

I don't have this error i have seen some posts with people that have problems with it.
Thats why is called Quick fix.

Still don't think you should advise people to delete their Russian roulette default exile code without some kind of replacement....

And again, this works fine in the vanilla exile files as I have been using it since the first day exile was publicly released...

@BaroN again is correct.  A much 'cruder' way of putting it is:

I saw where some people's mothers were sick; here is a 'quick fix', shoot them!  Then the problem of them being sick is eliminated!

While that IS a 'fix', it is NOT the 'best fix' nor is it the REAL fix.

The problem is that these people screwed up their installations and they REALLY should START OVER.

I know you're trying to help, sadly, this is not really 'helping' as it prompts them to IGNORE major and TRUE issues that they have.  Again, your car makes a noise?  Turn up the radio real loud!  That is NOT a 'fix'.  It is called IGNORING THE PROBLEM.

I know you're just trying to help...this is not really helping though...
