Mission bugs?

[Wabbit 0]

I'm an old OFP player and a big fan. So far, ArmA has been a mixed bag. One of the biggest problems are the multitude of bugs. For one thing, I keep getting the crash to desktop problem. Another problem I found recently is when I tried to do the Squad Leader training mission.

Everything worked fine until I tried to tell my squad to target and destroy the little car. I tried a lot of different things, such as telling the whole squad, telling one soldier, changing the combat mode, etc. They just would not attack the car. Also, I wouldn't hear the commands after I chose them, like I would for other items.

Anyone have any ideas?

First order your units target that car, then order fire.

That's what I did.

Nothing happened. I didn't even hear the command given, like when I tell them to return to formation.

I had the same problem until I realized that 'Open fire' & 'Fire' are not the same. Make sure the command you're giving them is 'Fire'.
