    Is it possible to add the random option to "Add armed vehicles in Hideout" and "Add armed vehicles in Side mission/Cache" parameter?

    Hello,

    You can change the randomness here

    We have an issue with dedicated server, when we launch it we have no working arsenal, no AI spawning, No missions popping up, you just spawn there and do nothing. 

    Looks like you wrongly setup your server or mission

    Hello,

    On another note, is there any chance of ACE mines or explosives, such as anti tank mines and UXO bomblets from cluster munitions, saving with persistence? That is the only thing I have noticed doesn't save and it would really be awesome if they did. 

    Well not for now

    Yes, I enabled it and did get stuck on the dead body. I am not sure how to proceed.

    By default you can only spectate your side: https://github.com/Vdauphin/HeartsAndMinds/blob/master/%3DBTC%3Dco%4030_Hearts_and_Minds.Altis/define_mod.sqf#L12-L19

    However, now you use the spectator camera anytime you die, when I just want it to be when you're out of tickets. Having the spectator mode before being out of tickets gives respawning players an unfair advantage since they can see all the enemies and immediately go back and begin fighting them.

    Check the wiki: https://ace3.acemod.org/wiki/framework/spectator-framework

    There are some function to enable disable on the fly, also only show your side etc

    I am trying to figure out a way to have the Spectator mode be activated when you die and you are entirely out of tickets, but have the simple respawn countdown be activated when you do have tickets. This way, the players that are dead and can't respawn can see what is going on and don't have to leave the mission when they have no tickets. 

    Hello

    Previously it was enable, just undo this pull request: https://github.com/Vdauphin/HeartsAndMinds/pull/1369/files

    But player may get stuck with the view from his dead body

    Hey @Vdauphin 

    Would you be cool with me posting the 4 Extra side missions I made for H&M in this thread?

    1. Destroy IED factory - Search for and destroy the IED factory. (Use one M112 explosive to destroy the IED Cache).
    2. Destroy the mortar camp -Search for and destroy the Mortar Camp. (Destroy the Mortar Cache and mortar tubes with explosives).
    3. Destroy the AA camp - Search for and destroy the Anti-Air Camp. (Destroy the Anti-Air guns at the site with explosives).
    4. Plane Crash Site -  A plane carrying a secure data terminal has gone down... your objective is to secure the crash site and retrieve the data.

    Hello,

    Yes sure, you can also share it here: https://github.com/Vdauphin/HeartsAndMinds/discussions

    Or make a pull request so everyone will enjoy it

    did that too already  

    
case 42 : {
        _description = [
            (localize "STR_BTC_HAM_SIDE_IEDfactory_DESC") + ([_location] call btc_fnc_typeOfPreview),
            localize "STR_BTC_HAM_SIDE_IEDfactory_TITLE",
            localize "STR_BTC_HAM_SIDE_IEDfactory_TITLE"
        ];
        _type = "search";
    };

    and added it to the stringtable 
     

    Then you need to check what is in _location, the error come from here

    Hello,

    Hard to say, you need to update the description of your task https://github.com/Vdauphin/HeartsAndMinds/blob/master/%3DBTC%3Dco%4030_Hearts_and_Minds.Altis/core/fnc/task/setDescription.sqf

    what files would need to be edited / added in order to add a side mission? 

     

    Here is an example https://github.com/Vdauphin/HeartsAndMinds/blob/master/%3DBTC%3Dco%4030_Hearts_and_Minds.Altis/core/fnc/side/tower.sqf

    Then you just need to add it here to the list https://github.com/Vdauphin/HeartsAndMinds/blob/master/%3DBTC%3Dco%4030_Hearts_and_Minds.Altis/core/def/mission.sqf#L229

    In our current mission we setup a FOB on the other side of the map (SOG) and we are having one small issue with it.  Sometimes when we start the server up the doors on the FOB will be locked.  Is there anything we can do to prevent this?

    Hello,

     

    You should move your FOB away from the city or exclude the city from the H&M system (http://vdauphin.github.io/HeartsAndMinds/Prevent-AI-from-spawning-near-the-base)

    When reputation is low, civilians lock doors, because you are in range of a city, FOB doors get locked

    Hello everyone,I have a problem with the map on the map of Seattle(https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1865395754)

     

    I follow the guide of the "Change Map"(http://vdauphin.github.io/HeartsAndMinds/Change-MAP-of-Hearts-and-Minds)wannna to put the mission in the map of the "Seattle"

     

    but when i try to host the mission,SERVER side problem is stuck at "Reading mission ..." PLAYER side problem is stuck at"receiving xxxx" but player could choice a role.

     

    I want to know is that i doing wrong at change map or something elsse?

     

     

    Thanks for you work!

    Hello,

    Hard to tell from here. If you follow the guide then it must be an issue from your server or your edition

    Try to enable debug mode in H&M mission parameters and start the mission in multiplayer as hosted and check if your mission is loading fine

    If you see circle and when you go inside cities you see civilian or enemy the mission should be work, then join the Arma 3 discord server for more help on server configuration

    Cheers

    Thanks very much! my bad. no errors now, but the classnames that I have included in the array to be removed is still appearing in the game. any idea why?

    The switch is for enemy faction (_p_en) not civilian faction

    Move your statement thing out of the switch scope

     

    Cheers
