    For OFP I made only a handful of missions, some of which were in the Lowlands Warrior pack. Mission making only started off proper in Armed Assault, in part because the default content was quite poor, with the coop pack. Although some coops are intended to be played together as part of an overarching setting (most of the Sahrani ones are supposed to be part of one and the same conflict, as were those on Schmalfelden, most of the Takistani missions, including the BAF ones, are indeed intended as related content) many are just stand alone scenario's, the result of looking at terrain and imaging how missions could make use of it. For OFP, Armed Assault or A2/CO I never made any dedicated SP content such as campaigns.

    Hi,

    There are two ways to accomplish that.

    (1) Create individually named tasks for each named playable unit rather than a generic task created for player

    (2) On the check for the event happening, set a variable to a value and broadcast that value to all participants using a publicVariable statement and update each individually named task

    Or

    (1) Check for the event, then set a variable to a value and broadcast that value to all participants using a publicVariable statement

    (2) Check for the variable being set to that particular value and have the tasks completed

    The topmost method has my preference due to its reliability.

    Non-Steam user can activate their Arma 2 and OA on Steam - see http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?175463-End-of-Gamespy&p=2703996#post2703996

    Steamworks matchmaking did replace the Gamespy in OA so it would not make much sense to release a non-steam patch.

    Introducing a privilege escalation vulnerability by adding a 3rd party dependency provides a good argument for not making it mandatory. Direct IP connection would work fine for those who made a conscious choice to avoid Steam.

    The Roman empire did never give citizenship the the provinces they took

    Actually the Romans did do so continuously, though at varying pace and with to varying degrees (in various cases a subset rather than full rights) till the Constitutio Antoniniana granted these rights to the freeborn provincial populations. A province as a whole was an administrative division and not a community as such, generally subdivided into various communities which could be dealt with separatively with regard to extension of civic rights. Some entities received block grants before others and local elites tended to be coopted with preferential grants of such rights.

    An order to disembark to AI under your command in an aircraft or helicopter requires that aircraft or vehicle to be on the ground before the AI will comply. In case you wish them to jump out while flying you will need to issue them a command to eject. One needs to have sufficient altitude when ordering the AI to do so because if that order is issued when flying too low the parachute jump can result in injury or death of the AI.

    This is a known bug for Arma2 with custom campaign pbo files placed directly into a ...\ArmA 2\Campaigns folder. To ensure no duplicates are shown the campaigns overview one has to place custom campaign pbo files in a ...\ArmA 2\Expansion\Campaigns folder. This affects all SP campaigns and is an undocumented feature of the default game.

    Another trick is to use markers on an identical position and use the setMarkerSize statement in the trigger to alter the size of the markers. For example one might wish to alternate between the flags of two warring parties:

    (1) Place a marker named flag1 on the map.

    (2) Place a second marker named flag2 on the map and move it so it covers the first one, then set the size of the marker to 0 and 0.

    (3) Place a trigger including in the on activation field:

    "flag1" setMarkerSize [0,0]; "flag2" setMarkerSize [1,1];

    This will ensure that the flag displayed on the map will change from the one to the other.

    Thanks for the feedback, but that is intentional:

    the objectives are linked to a list so as not to give away the exact locations of the objectives by having them located right on top. Raid all three of the FIA occupied locations indicated in the links in the Enemy section of the briefing to ensure the various assignments of the mission get accomplished because the precise location of the objectives varies between these bases.
