READ: Read the guide. Please! The Guide represents all the documentation, information, configuration settings, etc. to successfully enjoy this addon! Lots of pictures too, so read it 😄
STATUS: All known / reported issues have been addressed. Change log below. ANY ERRORS / POPUPS WERE NOT NOTICED IN TESTING... Please let me know if you find anything broken or simply... strange. I am already seeing several little things that need some TLC. It is somewhat difficult to test 50+ vehicles in all their scenarios so I am certain that some issues will be discovered.... MEA CULPA if they do!
SPECIAL FEATURES:
There are several new features that enhance gameplay. Included with the units are: Proximity fuses / indirect damage SHORAD counter-missile defense (yes I can shoot down your incoming missiles) ARM weapons (anti-radiation missiles) for use against key SAM/AAA site radar units. RWR missile alerts. Automatic, MP-friendly spawning of SAM and AAA sites. NEW in v4.2: Support for external ECM / JAMMING scripts
UNITS:
The addon includes both EAST / SOVIET heritage systems and WEST / NATO heritage systems. Due to the changes in 4.1 the vanilla factions can now access most all systems regardless of origin, with a few exceptions.
All your favorite A2 factions are present (via CUP units) for their respective factions' systems, now within their own OPTIONAL download (see above). If you desire to run with CUP, you will need that additional file. If you do not use CUP, DO NOT USE THE FILE. Further information is found in the Guide.

Good day! I'm finishing up my move to COS and finally have Internet for the first time since Christmas. SO I had a quick glance at that page. It appears the "location" is the TAOR and that it assumes a composition is being spawned. The sites are basically a composition although I have a hard-coded script to ensure proper and predictable placement. I need to look again at the scripts but I believe I do spawn an invisible Heli marker at the site. I need to confirm that as I am in the pre-coffee stage this morning. If not, I can add that.
According to this:
http://alivemod.com/wiki/index.php/Military_Placement_(Military_Objectives)#Custom_Unit_Blacklists The mission maker must create a custom blacklist to include all of the blacklisted units... ALiVE_PLACEMENT_CUSTOM_UNITBLACKLIST = ["unitType_1","unitType_2","unitType_3"]; ALiVE_PLACEMENT_CUSTOM_VEHICLEBLACKLIST = ["vehicleType_1","vehicleType_2","vehicleType_3"]; ALiVE_PLACEMENT_CUSTOM_GROUPBLACKLIST = ["groupType_1","groupType_2","groupType_3"]; Now this would be best suited to use a vehicle blacklist for my sites, because all of the static things like nets, etc. usually fall under the static vehicles category (usually under House or similar). However this will be up to the mission maker. QUESTION: Would it help if I listed all of the non-tactical objects/nets/ etc. to help mission makers?
