I wonder if someone could help me out with this, I don't know if I am doing things correct. I made a new mission in the editor, just a simple one to find out how it works, but I am not clear if I am doing things correct. I have got the helo at the correct place I want it, Asia map 1. Is there an item in the editor where I can place the H pad that shows in seattle etc, the yellow helipad graphic if so does it auto refuel the helo. 2. I have placed a fuel truck went to prevue and noticed from the selections that there is a option "need fuel", I thought the tanker would move and refuel the helo doing it that way, but it does not move. I have moved nearer to the truck, very close, and it then refuels, so does this mean that the helo has to be landed near it because it does not move. 3. I placed some ground crew and can't seem to see what they do, they don't do anything, although I can send a command so they move etc. Am I doing things correct or does it need to be scripts (no good at) to do what I want. I did not compile or what ever you call it, just went to the prevue from the editor. If someone could put me right on this please. Anthony

Same here, when it came out first of all there was a few which were good. Now everytime I look they are all empty, is this becasue we are from the U.K ? Anthony

Just went online tonight, nobody there. Last 2 nights was fine and good fun, is there a problem with it as all servers come up empty, other than some showing one player. Anthony

Is there a chat key to comunicate in multiplayer. I just had a nice trip as a passenger around Seattle with Josh***, can't remember the full name. Wanted to say something but could not find the key to get a window up, then his connection got bad and we crashed :D Anthony

I see that you can place a destroyer and Frigate, is there a Carrier as I can't seem to find it. I place a speedboat ok can you drive them, I can't seem to get in it. Anthony

Your right, about 4 of them

Did you have invinsible on :D

Can't see it anywhere, perhaps when you get a min you could post the coordinates. :) Anthony

None then

I agree with you on Bohemia's team. I don't use Black Shark anymore because of the stupid way they have the crash detection landing on rough ground, near impossible without exploding, not at all realistic when helo's can land most place with care. I find that with TOH I can land anywhere and potter around, takeoff, and land elswhere. Anthony

I think the Sim/Game is really great takes awhile to get into the editor even for basic stuff, but I am really enjoying all of it. You can't compare your progs to Codemasters, they just ignor comments and don't listen to the forums or interact at all with them. Yor come here to answer/ listen posts, they don't, that's why I like your business setup. Well done Anthony

Thanks Dale I think you answer the lot ! Thanks for the reply, is does work as you said Thanks again Anthony

52 views and no replies, looks like I am not the only one confused. Anthony

Thats very helpfull, thanks

I would like to see some sort of basic guide to say what the icons are at the top, and a basic idea on what to do with them, I would have thought that they would have done that for people who are new rather than just cater for the arma people that know what they are doing. The interface of the editor is different to the other series as far as I can see anyway, gets a bit frustrating trying to muddle through it just to something like a basic mission. Anthony

Yes interface is very low res here as well, bit of a pain....

I was looking for an option under controls to save my joystick config in case I hit the "defaults" button by mistake. I did not see that you can save, to reload if needed, is the option not in TOH. Anthony

ok, did not think of that

Thanks for the link, will go through it.

I have made a very basic mission. I noticed under the instruments there are a couple of icons, I take its me and the passenger. How do I select each one, so if I want him to get out how do I get that to happen, I managed to open his door, but can't close it. One last thing, I don't see my mission listed anywhere, so how do I load it without going to the editor again. Anthony

I have just got this, have I made the mistake because I have not got Arma. Reason I ask is because I can see any manual on how to do things, not flying but other things like using the mission editor, how to use the the ingame menu to do things, what icons are that popup when walking about. Runs really great just a bit confused with no manual etc. Thanks Anthony

Is there a full manual/User Guide anywhere to look at. I see steam have put up a pre-order and show a manual, but it is a very basic one about 4 pages. Would not buy until I see how realistic it is. Anthony

Thanks Terox Anthony

I would like to see something done, don't even mind paying. I find it difficult seeing I have not done it before, and with lack of instructions in the manual etc. Anthony

I have given up on the editing, there is no info on anything other than the examples they put on their site, helpfull but where do you put the scripts......... and no explanation on what anything does, is this something incomplete thrown in ? Very frustrating
