Suspend or Abort?!?

Recommended Posts

I have a serious patching problem. I won't go into all the details right now but limit myself to a straightforward question. When I try to end any mission I usually slect 'Suspend' in the options menu. But sometimes the GUI replaces the word 'Suspend' option with 'Abort'.

What is the option supposed to be called? Abort or Suspend?

I suspect that I have remnants of an older patch messing up my game, even though I upgraded to a newer version. I first saw the 'Abort' option when I upgraded from 1.02 to 1.02.58134. Before that it was always 'Suspend'. What should it be?!?

P.S: I own the downloadable version from nexway.

I noticed that too, when i pull the menu to quit from the editor but im not really worried about it. I have the 505 version patched up to the latest 1.2.

I'm not really worried about it either. Merely curious. The mystery unfolds slowly:

On version 1.0 to 1.02 all missions were terminated via the Suspend button.

From version 1.021.02.58134 all missions are terminated with the Abort button, unless they existed before applying the latest patch. In that case it's still Suspend.

The reason I'm delving into this is because I have not been able to switch on AA since I updated to 1.02.58134. Removing arma.cfg and user profiles to get a clean slate haven't helped. Now I'm beginning to think that ArmA2 saves files in more folders than previously known (I only know Documents and Program Folder). Since old save games affect settings, I want to find them and delete them as well, rather than go through a complete reinstall.

Does this mean the cursed SUSPEND button is going away? Back to the ol' CANCEL?

Please please kill SUSPEND for multiplayer and give us back CANCEL!
