mission editing orders

how do i make a order appear midway through a mission?

[karantan 0]

You mean how for new Objective to appear during the mission, yes?

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">"1" objStatus "hidden"

for hiding it first, and

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">"1" objStatus "active"

for appearing it when needed.

[edit] The number in the code is the number of the Objective.

its worked but it still appears at the briefing stage of the mission anyway of hiding it?

what about markers are they hidden and reactivated later in the mission the same way?

Use command in init.sqs so it's run before the mission starts.

To hide markers, I move them outside of map, like [-1000,-1000]. You could save the initial pos, move marker away and then return it once it needs to be visible.

"Marker" SetMarkerType "empty" makes them invisible without changing their position...

when the objective becomes active you can make it visible with:

"Marker" SetMarkerType "flag"

(or another markertype you like)
