infoscroller:
wait 30.0
iprintln "Welcome to...blah blah"
wait 1.0
iprintln "www.whatever.com"
wait 1.0
iprintln "IP: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
wait 300.0
goto infoscroller

This code actually double prints...output looks like:
Welcome to...blah blah
Welcome to...blah blah
www.whatever.com
www.whatever.com
IP: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
IP: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

Anyone know why it is double printing?

it's running your thread twice.
Two posibilities

either you have the line "Thread infoscroller" in twice or you are missing an end. you might have something like shown below:

Code: Select all

Main:

...
...
etc
etc
...
Thread infoscroller


nfoscroller: 
wait 30.0 
iprintln "Welcome to...blah blah" 
wait 1.0 
iprintln "www.whatever.com" 
wait 1.0 
iprintln "IP: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" 
wait 300.0 
goto infoscroller

what you need is:

Code: Select all

Main:

...
...
etc
etc
...
Thread infoscroller

end

nfoscroller: 
wait 30.0 
iprintln "Welcome to...blah blah" 
wait 1.0 
iprintln "www.whatever.com" 
wait 1.0 
iprintln "IP: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" 
wait 300.0 
goto infoscroller

end

okay, global/DMprecache is:

cache models/weapons/colt45.tik
//....
//cut out bulk of cache
//....
cache models/player/german_worker.tik
cache models/player/german_worker_fps.tik

exec global/infoscroller.scr

global/infoscroller.scr is:

Main:

thread infoscroller

end

infoscroller:
wait 30.0
iprintln "Welcome to...blah blah"
wait 1.0
iprintln "www.whatever.com"
wait 1.0
iprintln "IP: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
wait 300.0
goto infoscroller

end

I pk3 it up, put it in mainta and it still repeats.

Possibly the dm_precache script is called twice. Just set a variable when your script is running so that it won't start two instances.

Example:

Code: Select all

Main:

if(level.infoscroller != 1)
{
  level.infoscroller = 1
  thread infoscroller
}

end
