The working mission nogova 2

[bn880 5]

Good day, (maybe)

some of you may remember the existing Working Mission Nogova here

As promised I am gearing up to create an updated version of it or a sequel, even though my mind isn't there yet. (misson editors block)

I would like to get some suggestions from the community as to what they would like to see improved, changed, added, etc. Problem is I want most things that are in the mission to be kept secret, so that there is the suspense of not knowing what's there when playing.

So far the things I may concentrate on:

[*]A bit of swimming maybe

[*]Some UN job (you want stress?, ok)[*]buy and sell vehicles and other items

[*]gambling machines (Gameer may on this)

[*]walkman (buy it, pick your music, but music that's in game mostly)

[*]timed race (race against the clock across the island)

[*]time acceleration...(umm I left that out before due to reality issues and AI bumming out)

[*]check gas stations (they MUST have fuel for that bus)

[*]maybe add bleeding scripts

[*]and foremost, improve the scripts to give the CPU a break. (this will be aided tremendously by 1.91 functions)

[*]saving issue will be looked at in more detail (at the CoC we have been trying to pinpoint the cause of the save/load problem a few large missions are encountering to no avail)

If you have ideas add them in, just remember, it will be mostly a one man show, and I have other things to do than just make TWMN2.

Maybe a multiplayer version no actully that be impossible. And theres all ready civil RPG by slash so never mind.

How bout being able to become a mafia boss or work for the local maffia lol that be cool (inless this was all ready in the original one i dident play much of it coz it lagged my pc out)

or be able to choose to work as cop and fight the maffia.Or be able to get a job as a solider and go fight some risistance gurillias.

Somthing like that i cant think too tierd.

Yeah tell me about it, I'v been tired the entire day for some reason... I thought I had SARS, but I'm not passing out yet.

What do you know, not many like a working mission anymore that's a relief, I won't have to make it. Not bad considering my heart isn't in it like it was in the 1'st and 2'nd one. I just feel bad because of the new features BIS added which suit this kind of RPG, or whatever you want to call it. Real Life Mod.

Catch you later bastiges

Maybe the reason everybody thinks they have SARS is because of the symptoms.  "Flu-like symptoms".  That's almost Bush-worthy it's so vague. You could have the flu, leprosy, or SARs. Or maybe you're coughing because you inhaled some dust.

Anyway, I'd love to see a UN job.  Maybe a civilian job as a police officer or something?

I'd also like to see a pilots liscense you don't have to buy, but you get with experience (experience thatyou pay for).

Say you fly around a lot, landing at a few places (in the helo at least), then go back to your airport.  The whole ride costs a few thousand dollars and if you botch it, oh well.

I dunno maybe if you wanted to make it hard you could add altitude/speed limitations (+/- 100 ft, +/- 10 kts).  I'm just daydreaming.

But that police job I'd really like to see.  I've always wanted a police simulator.

That's true, and I personally was not caughing, if I was I would be quite worried.

Well anyway, if it continues at this pace, I may simply improve the old one instead of starting from scratch.

Will your job be just as ineffectice as the Real UN is?

[bn880 5]

It will be a service to all humanity, a long and draining process. You will be on your own.

Oh and it will be nothing spectacular at all, just something that takes a lot of psychological stability in real life.

i guess i should not ask for this but if possible, a performance increase?

[-CCCP-Stalker 0]

Yeah. Destroying tanks w/o any grenades, one-man-fighting-50000-angry-bastards type of the mission etc

THEY DO!?

I've been looking for something like that for so loong.

And to be honest I never got to the airplane thing, couldn't work up enough money. Maybe you could include a lottery or something?

imho the best thing would be if you could bet some money on some kind of racing. The ideal thing would be horse racing etc, but we have no horses so the next best thing is some some good old car racing. Maybe on the airport or so?

[bn880 5]

Well, the performance increase I think I mentioned, it should come with new 1.91 functionality and my improved OFP scripting skills.

The racing I plan on doing against the clock, no way against the AI (anyone can beat the AI). Would be like a rally across the island or such. (it can't be great, but the winnings will be imortant I think)

Okay anyway, it seems best to me to revamp the existing mission with new things and performance increase. (I have not started the work yet, planning is much more important)

EDIT: Lottery, well how about a slot machine (the gambling I mentioned) You have great potential to waste your money in one of those.

Definately if the saving issue can not be fixed, I will adjust the income amounts for a 6h game not more, if saving will work, it will be just as difficult to make money.

[-CCCP-Stalker 0]

Idea for saving you game. In your house you'll have a bad where you can save, skip time etc. Also make a time flowing faster.

But i guess your idea is better although you know, wagering can be pretty exciting too

[bn880 5]

Heh, thanks for the good ideas.

removeallweapons this; this addweapon "facemask"

For racing you could just set up a bunch of different vehicles, giving them all waypoints going down whatever racetrack you wanted, then eventually slow some of them down by changing the speed in the waypoints so you have a winner.

It'd only work once though, as far as I can figure at least.

I ain't never heard of an NPD series before. <!--emo&

Only single player Nogova Police Department mission i've ever seen was at gameer's website.

Apparently he's making a sequel...

[Edit] What about letting you join the army?

It's a big step, but it wouldn't have to be too complicated. You could sign up, do a few training excercises and then Nogova gets invaded or something.
