Be aware that spawning this function will set enableSaving to true. Quick workaround:
_savingEnabled = savingEnabled; _handle = [player, "myText"] spawn BIS_fnc_establishingShot; waitUntil { scriptDone _handle }; enableSaving [_savingEnabled, false];Or, if you can't wait the end of the establishing shot:_savingEnabled = savingEnabled; _handle = [player, "myText"] spawn BIS_fnc_establishingShot; _handle spawn { waitUntil { scriptDone _this }; enableSaving [_savingEnabled, false]; };
