will this mission work with ace and  lambsdanger  or vcom ai  mods?  and  is in mission HC support?

Lambs danger and VCOM, yes. I've used it in the past.

ACE? Unlikely, as it wasn't designed to use it. It might do, try it 🙂

There's no support for an HC - it doesn't really need it, to be honest.

Another update because I got a much awaited feature working and I wanted to get it out there.

5088 Better diagnostics at server startup
5090 Fired hit score now working. Yey.

Teaser of new secondary mission

 

Share this post

Having spent time alone with my first bite on the Covid sandwich, it seemed like a good time to get down into the mission and write some stuff.


Mission updated to 1.26.5157.

 

Two new secondary missions, both quite good fun.
KIll the enemy spy sub is teased in the above post - players are tasked with destroying an enemy SDV that is reconnoitering BLUFOR assets nearby. The sub comes to periscope depth near the shore, raises scopes, takes a few pics, then submerges and relocates before coming up again. It's quite hard to complete this one. I've found MAAWS HE rockets are the best way, and they are still hard to get accurate fire in. It might be possible to 'depth-charge' the sub with grenades from a boat if you can get accurate fire on it before it dives. I've not actually tried that particular method yet - having a drone overhead to help spot will help, it can see the SDV underwater quite well. Thermal only shows the mast and periscope when it's on the surface.

The other new secondary is called mortar smoke. Friendlies have asked for fire support in the shape of a smoke screen while they attempt to break contact with the enemy. Mk6 mortars are the way to do this. Bit easier, this one.

Few other fixes including making services at the vehicle depot easier by increasing its radius.

 

Full changelog in spoiler below and new files on Google drive link on first post.

 

Spoiler

5138: Fix for AI units spawning and getting stuck inside shipping containers.
5139: Increased radius so vehicles don't have to get so close to vehicle depot to be serviced.
5140: Tweaks to inhouse function so units and vehicles won't spawn inside dome_big and dome_small.
5142: Fixed minor bug in DEP when not playing a Prairie Fire mission.
5144: Players get more time to instruct airdrop crew where they want ne assets dropped. Was 60 seconds, now 90.
5146: Added data for subsspy secondary to secondary mission manager.
5148: Fixed bugged adding of magazines to BLUFOR boat in nastyboatpatrol secondary.
5149: Gave findriverroute function more time to run. Speeded up the 'park the boat at a pier' routine for nastyboatpatrol.
5151: Replaced first instance of Cheetah with Sandstorm in prize array.
5153 and 5154: Improved landmassid data on Tanoa.
5155: Added new secondary missions, killspysub and mortarsmoke
5157: build publish 1.26.5157

Hi @Tankbuster first of all, thank you very much for your time on this mission.

I want to try it (Authority Altis) on a dedicated server, but when I try to connect it shows me "you have reached the max. number of players".

Regards.

Hi!
First thing - are you running any mods? Don't run ACE or CBA, they can break the mission.

Make sure the server isn't trying to autoinit the mission. Server CFG file, I think. I use FASTER launcher if it helps
Also, the server max players might be set to zero, also in server.cfg

If you're having issues, let me know and we'll see if you can join my serverr/
