cartel 1 Posted August 27, 2012 Thanks for this mission! I have spent hours on hours playing without realizing where the time went. But some times I get a little lonely, are you planning on making a mp version or is there some way I can do that in the mission files? Thanks again!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smacker909 3 Posted August 27, 2012 Hi Cartel, glad u r having fun with the mission. I think there are lots more insurgency missions already for MP so I was mostly trying to make a SP with things I wanted that I couldn't find in a SP. I'm not an expert scripter either ;) so would have to do some reading up on MP requirements. (in other words.. I haven't scripts a MP mission before :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JuggernautOfWar 1 Posted August 27, 2012 I'd also love to see an MP version of this. Nothing fancy. Basically the exact same system in place, but with multiplayer. No respawn as in the current SP mission. Just healing once critically wounded. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cartel 1 Posted August 27, 2012 Ya plenty of insurgency missions out there but non of them are truly as fun as yours. Would love to play Mp on it! but like I said before great sp and endless fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smacker909 3 Posted August 27, 2012 well, I'm happy that u think it's FUN because FUN was my main objective ;) Unfortunately I haven't scripted MP before and would need to do some work to get to the point of porting to MP.. because lots of things coded from the start, were not done with public variables in mind. I'm still pretty new to scripting and someone with proper coding skills would probably gasp if they looked at my scripts! lol. However, if someone wanted to help out with porting it over, I would be welcome for that and offer assistance or information as needed. Otherwise, it would be a while before it happened :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smacker909 3 Posted August 29, 2012 (edited) Updated 8/28 - Hostile civilians & suicide bombers now spawn in nearby houses - Suicide bombers will now target random squad members Please advise of any issues. :) Edited August 29, 2012 by smacker909 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Muahaha 10 Posted August 31, 2012 liking this mission so far, very fun to go witch hunting the villagers. 1 thing though, destroyed or disabled enemy vehicle despawn too fast for my guys to carefully approach it. possible to prolong the timer? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smacker909 3 Posted August 31, 2012 (edited) Muahaha - Glad you are having fun with the mission :) - Which enemy vehicle are u referring to? -- Only convoy vehicles should be deleted manually.. and this should only occur when the next convoy starts. So if the convoy timer (which is 180 seconds by default) expires and a new convoy starts, they will be deleted. This behavior was changed in a recent release where as the convoy vehicles used to be deleted much sooner.. so if you don't have the latest version of the mission.. please download the new one. ;) If you are using the latest.. please describe the vehicles and timing between when they were destroyed and when they were deleted as well as , if you changed the default convoy timer during mission start.. what it was set to. - For all other vehicles I'm using the garbage collector module and that hasn't changed.

I am referring to the convoy, didn't pay attention how long before it got deleted but I took my time to tactically move my squad in, just to make sure no surprises. Should be the latest just got it downloaded again today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smacker909 3 Posted August 31, 2012 (edited) Okay, thanks for the info. If you destroyed the supply truck, you should have gotten credit for an objective and points for that. (music plays..lol) I assume you were hoping for intel from the crew? Hopefully the convoy trucks & crew weren't deleted until the next convoy was starting.. I think 3 mins is default delay if truck is destroyed or cache site is built. --- Can you tell me if the supply truck was disabled or destroyed prior to moving in? I can see about making a longer delay prior to deleting.. even if next convoy has started. Thanks for the feed back !

Muahaha 10 Posted August 31, 2012 it was disabled or got the driver killed, couldn't confirm it but definitely not destroyed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smacker909 3 Posted August 31, 2012 I'll check, but I believe the script will check if truck !canMove or !alive .. or within range of it's destination before starting the timer.. so I will see if I can change the script to allow garbage handler take care of deleting the trucks and crew.. that way it shouldn't occur until you are gone from the area. I will report back with an update when I have it. Thank Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smacker909 3 Posted August 31, 2012 Updated 8/31 - Convoy trucks and crew now use garbage_collector for removal Please advise of any problems Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

deltafiveone 11 Posted September 5, 2012 Anything in the works lately Smacker909? Also, wanted to ask the community if anyone would like to see any specific features in the future for this mission at all? Very open-ended mission we have here in the making, the more ideas the better? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smacker909 3 Posted September 5, 2012 Next update will hopefully have multiple convoys running.. spawning from H.Q. first, then from any active caches sites afterwards. Hope to have something by the weekend, time permitting :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smacker909 3 Posted September 20, 2012 Sorry Delta, that turned out to be a little more than I initially thought.. so was going to rebuilt the core of the mission from scratch, then got side tracked with other things. Anyway, It looks like the mission link expired, so I'll re-upload it and update the link when I get back home this afternoon, but based on the low number of downloads last go round, it looks like not many are playing anymore.
