NOTES: this is but a simple code hack to make this work, please don't ask me to make any additional changes as I am already out of my depth. Do not credit me in any code changes you make here. I am not responsible for you, your game, your computer or the universe and everything contained within it, if this shit goes wrong. Hope this works for you and hope that a real piece of code gets written to keep running a dedicated server version of this mission. ALL HAIL DUWS!!!

Im sure other have had this working. The most crude hack possible but it works. init.sqf // the following lines 205,217,224,225,239 Im no code expert but this works for dedicated server. however each player that joins gets a new base setup. there is obviously work to do here but its a start for me :) next on my list is some code to check if a HQ exists then move players to that point and skip the generate mission section.
