Some code that should produce a "Mission Credits" GUI (tested with a sample array, not actual MP). Lists all connected players. _allPlayers = "composeText ["; { if (isPlayer _x) then { _allPlayers = format ["%1'%2'", _allPlayers, name _x]; if (_forEachIndex < ((count playableUnits) - 1)) then { _allPlayers = format ["%1,lineBreak,", _allPlayers]; }; }; }forEach playableUnits; _allPlayers = format ["%1];", _allPlayers]; _structuredText = call compile _allPlayers; [_structuredText, "Mission Credits", "THANK YOU", "THANK YOU", findDisplay 46, false, true] spawn BIS_fnc_GUImessage;
