About

  • Co-op + Civilians
  • Map: Altis
  • Player count: 25
    (15 combat roles + 10 civilians)
  • Typical duration: 10 min – 25 min
  • Mod dependencies (load into Arma 3 Launcher)

 

Briefing

AAF

A suspicious truck has been reported east-bound leaving Altis Intl. Airport where you're based. Description matches a classified project run by CSAT.
The truck is currently on the highway, escorted by several light vehicles. Unless we intervene, it will reach the border within 20 minutes.

Intercept the truck ASAP and bring it back to base in one piece.

Civilians may be active in the area, use caution.

 

Civilians (optional)

You will act as a civilian road user.


This is a non-combatant role. Refrain from operating weapons and military vehicles.

Feel free to explore as you see fit, though it's best to stay near the highway inbetween: Rodopoli - Paros - Delfinaki - Sofia.

Scripting highlights

  • Heavily scripted damage handling for the truck to encourage players to stop the truck in order to eliminate the crew. This also reduces the risk of explosion when the truck is rammed by another vehicle.
  • Heavily scripted AI behaviour
    • "Runaway" behaviour intended to make the truck driver extremely stubborn and always moving
    • Escort behaviour intended to keep the convoy in the formation and dismount only when the situation really requires it
  • Adjustments to vehicles
    • Automatically shutting off siren when driver leaves the vehicle (GTA V-inspired)
    • Helicopter locked to pilot slots only
    • Road safety equipment (i.e. cones, barriers, lights) automatically loaded into vehicle cargo (ACE3 feature)
  • Discouraging civilian players from interfering with the AI convoy
  • Selectable escort strength
