- Editing Commands Refference Guide.

[wipman 1]

Hi, i think that will be great (even mandatory) to release a .pdf commands refference guide for the players to create their own (working) SP & MP missions on the official game's page (www.arma2.com) booth for the ArmA2 and also for the ArmA2 OA, as it introduces new functions and commands as ArmA2 Combined Operations.

It's not easy to create a working MP mission coop or PvP without the required info, i could even say that's impossible; and the method of "we give you a built in missions editor but we don't tell you how to use it" is not a good method in my opinion. So... a official commands refferece for booth games will be a good idea in my opinion. Let's C ya

You mean something like this: wiki/Category:Scripting_Commands

+1 to the OP.

Yes something like the things others have suggested but complete, up to date, and authoritative. Does not need to be a PDF in my opinion--could just be an update to the wiki to fill in all the missing information and add pages explaining some of the overall concepts that it does not discuss.

Should include full documented details on how to use things like the SecOps and Ambient Civilians modules, instructions on how to put together a mission, etc.

Much of this has already been done by the community or exists in various forum threads but it should be pulled together into one authoritative place so people don't have to hunt through different command reference documents, forums, faqs, etc., hoping to find an answer, basic documentation for the game provided API and official BIS addons should all be in one place.

That's what the biki is. If you see something missing or wrong, fix it.

I don't have the knowledge to fix it.

Hi, i was saying a COMMREF that comes with the game's CD, imagine that you don't have internet and you want to edit your own SP missions, something more complex than a simple firefight... how you do it?, AFAIK the miracles don't exist and the "infuse science" don't work; the fact that you've a missions editor don't allows you to create your own missions (SP and neither MP) without the required info. Info that must be up to date, precise, simple to understand and to apply for be able to create your own missions for the game. Let's C ya
