Script works on hosted server but not dedicated server.

[Berwin]

Hi

I have a script which work perfectly when I host a game through the ingame browser but will crash the client if I try to connect it to a dedicated server.  The crash occurs when one of my altered structures is spawned.  I assume the script isn't on the client, that's my interpretation of the error.  The script and error are below.  The first 'for' loop adding the component is causing the problems, seems the client doesn't have this informations.  Script below, and error below that:

    inst:AddComponent("health")

So.. I've tried just running this on dedicated server and it crashes client when you spawn Science Machine.  Works on self hosted server.

Usually something working without caves and crashing with caves is a problem related to server/client. Like something that should be server side but that is on client.

Ok i'm too slow to type, this seems to be the case here

[Berwin]

Thanks for doing this.  It's working perfectly.  Should I apply this to the 2nd 'for' loop also?  Could you explain what is going on here so I can learn from it.  

I assume the bit listed below is stopping the code being applied to the client?  

if not GLOBAL.TheWorld.ismastersim
        then
            return
