Never Ending Mission?

[petete809 1]

Currently, missions end when all players are dead.

I would like for them all to go into the spectator, which I have already done, and let the host decide when the mission actually ends.

 

The idea is to have some delay between the death of the last player alive, allow the last player alive to spectate for a short while and talk to the fellow spectators and then end the mission.

 

Any pointers on how to do this gentlemen?

Arma_3_Respawn#Respawn_Templates

If you haven't defined respawnTemplates in description.ext, "EndMission" (which ends the mission when all players are dead) is enabled by default. You can avoid this simply by defining the templates without "EndMission". For example:

respawnTemplates[] = {"Spectator","Group"};

As for ending the mission manually, having enableDebugConsole = 1; in description.ext would allow the host (or on a dedicated server, anyone who knows the admin password) to end the mission by running a command like "END1" call BIS_fnc_endMission globally from the console. If you'd rather like something that doesn't involve the console, I'm not sure what would work best. Maybe mapping it to a key press?

Thank you very much Magirot!
