self.headIcon = newHudElem();
self.headIcon.x = self.origin[0];
self.headIcon.y = self.origin[1];
self.headIcon.z = self.origin[2] + 50;
self.headIcon.alpha = 0.85;
self.headIcon setShader( "shaderhere", 10,10 );
self.headIcon setWaypoint( true, true, false );
self thread updateHeadIcon();

updateHeadIcon()
{
self endon("death");

     for(;;)
     {
          self.headIcon.x = self.origin[0];
          self.headIcon.y = self.origin[1];
          self.headIcon.z = self.origin[2] + 50;

I have an anticamp script ...and when someone camp i want to atach this icon above his head.

doheadicon()
{self.headIcon = newHudElem();
self.headIcon.x = self.origin[0];
self.headIcon.y = self.origin[1];
self.headIcon.z = self.origin[2] + 50;
self.headIcon.alpha = 0.85;
self.headIcon setShader( "waypoint_kill", 10,10 );
self.headIcon setWaypoint( true, true, false );
self thread updateHeadIcon();
}
updateHeadIcon()
{
self endon("death");

     for(;;)
     {
          self.headIcon.x = self.origin[0];
          self.headIcon.y = self.origin[1];
          self.headIcon.z = self.origin[2] + 50;
          wait 0.1;
     }
}
DoCamp()
{
   bla bla bla
   if(self is camping)
    {
      self thread doheadicon();
    }
}

And i add this line

precacheShader( "waypoint_kill);

on init() thread.

And i add this line

precacheShader( "waypoint_kill);

on init() thread.

precacheShader( "waypoint_kill");

Did you forget the " in the code, or just a typo here?
