some important scripts not working on some worlds, always problems when there is maintenance. i have lost funds this time too. after an agonising time on the bad EA live chat they said i would get my funds back. its not just me, many folks online grumbling about the everlasting problems and bad customer help
The new framework we implemented with patch 17.4. does create problems with certain scripts. This thread addresses this issue and provides you with newer/working versions of many scripts.
Unfortunately neither EA nor Envision are responsible for user-created scripts, therefore you have to rely on the creators to adjust their scripts so they work with the new framework.
Could you tell me the exact script error you receive? Just open up your console with F12 when the error occurs and take a screenshot of it or copy the whole error. Please post it into this thread afterwards. Thank you!
Like Many others I am now after all these years getting feed-up with the constant **** ups that these apparent UNTESTED up dates are doing to the game.
After the recent update, half the 3rd Party Scrips dont work. Its no good just saying its up to the 3rd Party to fix the Scripts
You update mucked them up So in my Book its Down to EA to sort the Problem and stop passing the Buck for there **** ups
AND TEST AND TEST AGAIN Upgrades Before putting them live on all worlds, Perhaps use 4 or 5 worlds for a week as a test before doing a fall run out
@rayron1946 The upgrade was tested and the fact that 3rd party scripts didn't work was noted. If you check these forums you will see that both @debitosphere and @KRS_LAN have updated many 3rd party scripts.
You may feel it is EA's responsibility, but if 3rd party companies make add-ons for a car and the model changes, Ford or Toyota don't 'test' those add-ons it is the responsibility of the 3rd party company.
You may not have noticed, but the PTE1 had the 17.4 update for weeks, a few worlds had them from 30th May and this week the rest are getting the updates. So your point about TEST and TEST is the method used.

How do you explain issues with worlds when you aren't running scripts??? I don't have any scripts running in any of my accounts and I have bases burning with no damage icons, I can't heal them, half the buttons don't work??? And is more than one world...Like others, have grown tired of the constant updates that don't work...
I do check these Forum and Time and Time Again the same Problems arise re upgrades and the same platitudes are given by the Moderators
Perhaps the Devs and 3rd Parties could work together in some way to Iron out the Problems before world wide release
Even Better why don,t EA adopt these scrips into there frame work then it rules out 3rd Parties.
Just because you don't like the message, don't blame the messenger!
The suggestion of the 3rd party developers working with the main game developers has been suggested before. How do you suggest they do this when the games 3rd party script writers no longer play the game and more than likely registered with a fake email address to avoid spam.
The suggestion of the main game developers incorporating the script functionality has been thought of and suggested many times. One issue is of intellectual property rights, the ideas that result in the script are the property of the writer of the script. The may need permission to incorporate the ideas. Which brings us back to my point in the last paragraph, how do you suggest they contact them to get permission.

Unable to relocate since the update of the 07/06/2017
Thanks again tiberium 20
Hi toto6868,
we were able to relocate without a problem on Tiberian 20.
Update: We checked your account. Your relocate is on cooldown how it is supposed to be.
Short explanation on how it works:
The standard relocate cooldown is 1 day (tier 1).
Whenever you relocate, you will go up by one tier.
Relocate cooldown for tier 2 is 3 days
Relocate cooldown for tier 3 is 7 days.
Since you are currently in tier 3 your relocate cooldown is 7 days. Everything works as expected.

Not working here anymore. Contact Tjapka for help.
I did offer my explanation to the question. The fact is that always, there have been problems for some players on their worlds. The 17.4 patch is designed to reduce these.
Yes, sometimes 3rd party scripts are to blame, but he specifically said without scripts so that is what I address in my explanation.
