Mission naming

[VaeVictis 1]

Hello,

Firstly I would like to thank all of the people who are creating missions.

I have a simple suggestion which would benefit all of us.

The fact is that many missions are named as author pleases and then is quite difficult to select a mission from all the names and choose the mission for the specific number of players.

I am suggesting a simple mission name template.

Something like this:

CO-04_SD_NAME_OF_THE_MISSION_STRATIS.STRATIS.PBO file

CO-04_SD_NAME_OF_THE_MISSION_STRATIS

CO - Cooperation style of mission.

or

SP - Single player style of mission.

SD - Search and destroy

or

HO - Hostage

or

DO - Domination

etc.

NAME_OF_THE_MISSION - Name of your mission.

STRATIS - Name of the island

or

ALTIS - Name of the island

What do you guys and gals think, and ideas, any suggestions?

Tried and failed in Arma and Arma 2 :p

There are threads here already going over this but it's difficult to get people to observe any kind of standard. For our own server I usually de-pbo the mission and rename it to something like:

co32_ACE_MissionName_v2.stratis.pbo

In addition to changing the name as it appears in the mission list (usually just edit the mission.sqm).

Might be a bit redundant putting in the island name.

There's only one naming convention present in the Arma series, and that is that 90% of all missions ever made are called OPERATION: something.

OPERATION%20%Something.pbo
