hi everybody,
i was trying to make a welcome script for my server.

Found this script 30 pages ago but i did something wrong.

Error (bad syntax) comes up if i start a new server in SD gametype.

Okay, here is the script.

I created a new gsc (_welcome.gsc)

Init()

welcomeMessage()
	{
	self endon("disconnect");
	
	self waittill("spawned_player");

	self iprintlnbold("Hi," + self.name + "! ^7Welcome To tehserverr :P");
	self iprintlnbold("Follow All Rules!");
	self iprintlnbold("Proud sponsors with: www.website.org");
	self iprintlnbold("Modded By The modsonline team");
	}

and i also threaded the gsc in my sd.gsc

	thread maps\mp\gametypes\_welcome::init();

I read about paste the code right into the sd.gsc but i tried and i also did something wrong -.-

here is the callback_playerconnect-part from my sd.gsc

Callback_PlayerConnect()
{
	thread dummy();

	self.statusicon = "";
	self waittill("begin");
	self.statusicon = "";

	level notify("connected", self);

	if(!isdefined(self.pers["team"]) && !level.splitscreen)
		iprintln(&"MP_CONNECTED", self.name);

	lpselfnum = self getEntityNumber();
	lpselfguid = self getGuid();
	logPrint("J;" + lpselfguid + ";" + lpselfnum + ";" + self.name + "\n");


	// * GAME MOD *  
	if(game["gdm_enabled"] == 1) self maps\mp\gametypes\_gdm_mod_player::PlayerConnect();




	if(game["state"] == "intermission")
	{
		spawnIntermission();
		return;
	}

	level endon("intermission");

	if(level.splitscreen)
	{
		if(isdefined(self.pers["weapon"]))
			scriptMainMenu = game["menu_ingame_onteam"];
		else
			scriptMainMenu = game["menu_ingame_spectator"];
	}
	else
		scriptMainMenu = game["menu_ingame"];

	if(isdefined(self.pers["team"]) && self.pers["team"] != "spectator")
	{
		self setClientCvar("ui_allow_weaponchange", "1");

		if(isdefined(self.pers["weapon"]))
			spawnPlayer();
		else
		{
			self.sessionteam = "spectator";

			spawnSpectator();

			scriptMainMenu = self maps\mp\gametypes\_menus::gdm_menuSelection();

		}
	}
	else
	{
		self setClientCvar("ui_allow_weaponchange", "0");

		if(!level.xenon)
		{
			if(!isdefined(self.pers["skipserverinfo"])) self openMenu(game["menu_serverinfo"]);
			else self openMenu(game["menu_team"]);
		}
		else
			self openMenu(game["menu_team"]);


		self.pers["team"] = "spectator";
		self.sessionteam = "spectator";

		spawnSpectator();
	}

	self setClientCvar("g_scriptMainMenu", scriptMainMenu);
}

Where is the error?And what means bad syntax?did i spelled something wrong? ^^

please help me out ;)

your first code has Init() then no opening or closing bracket. plus you have a another func inside Init() wich i dont know what you are threading Init() or welcomeMessage(). so either put the opening and closing bracket for Init and take out the welcomeMessage() and its opening and closing brackets. or if Init is not what your threading then delete that part and just keep welcomeMessage().

edited the _welcome.gsc

welcomeMessage()
	{
	self endon("disconnect");
	
	self waittill("spawned_player");

	self iprintlnbold("Hi," + self.name + "! ^7Welcome To tehserverr :P");
	self iprintlnbold("Follow All Rules!");
	self iprintlnbold("Proud sponsors with: www.website.org");
	self iprintlnbold("Modded By The modsonline team");
	}

then i edited my sd.gsc

	thread maps\mp\gametypes\_welcome::welcomeMessage();

Server runs now - but nothing shows up after i spawned...

here's the thread where i took the script

Dude
You call a (level) thread and call to self in there...

change it to a self thread

thread
->
self thread
