Description: This project is no longer active. Cyclone is some sort of persistent cooperative scenario for ARMA 3. In the same spirit of Invade & Annex, but not nearly as mature. As a player, the point of it is mainly to fly/drive/halo to parts of the map where bad guys are and shoot them and disabled some contrived (plot) devices in the area. And then a new task is generated somewhere else so you can do the same thing over and over again forever. These objectives may be fleshed out later on to be a bit more interesting. A pbo of the latest release (v0.3.0-rc.3) is available at https://gitlab.com/sqwishy/Cyclone.Altis/uploads/673c95f8c4a92344718b285d6f02b4cf/Cyclone-v0.3.0-rc.3.Altis.pbo A list of releases with notable changes and downloads is available at https://gitlab.com/sqwishy/Cyclone.Altis/tags The source code is at https://gitlab.com/sqwishy/Cyclone.Altis. A vanilla server running the mission (in eastern North America) is up at 158.69.23.19:2302. There is also a TeamSpeak 3 server at the same address, 158.69.23.19:9987. Feel free to use it to help communicate with others in the server. Changelog: A chronological list of notable changes and their associated releases can be viewed at: https://gitlab.com/sqwishy/Cyclone.Altis/tags. Features: The mission supports headless clients. (The demonstration server is not using them right now due to an bug with ARMA's dedicated server on Linux.) It uses an AI director that I wrote some time ago as a sort of alternative to DAC that does less and is more manageable. I don't know how it compares to DAC in practice because it hasn't seen much field testing, but at least the AI should be more interesting than vanilla AI with random patrols. It's also supposed to run efficiently, but how successful that has been is a bit of a mystery as explained below. Endeavour: At this point I've done about as much as I can on my own. I don't have the resources to test this in private with a large group nor to moderate a public server. So if anybody is interested in this enough to host it, or a derivative of it, you would be doing me a favour. I do intend to maintain the mission for some time.
