I was very happy to see a BAF mission pack and downloaded the lot for regular Sunday coop. Couldn't resist trying "Crash Tackle" in singleplayer this evening and was very impressed. It's a really well-scaled mission, quite authentic, tactical, great terrain, with just the right balance between movement and engegement. Very well-deployed enemy AI and mission objectives.

The only small glitch is an ArmA problem, not the mission designer's, which is that the game does not handle disengagement and tactical withdrawal at all well and it is difficult to corral stragglers who hang around targeting enemies when you want them to GTFO. Obviously this is not a problem in coop.

Always great to see a helo extraction work perfectly.

Thanks!

That's just about the most gramatically correct post I've ever seen on an ArmA board. You must be officer class.

I played the mission in coop this morning with three friends but we got our a$$es handed to us at the first objective. Twice. I am humbled.

"Strike Camp" is a great mission, very well balanced, but in two attempts, one of them seemingly 100% successful, none of the task accomplished triggers worked. This prevented the Red counterattack I suspect you programmed from materialising.

Thanks for the feedback. The mission was played this morning and the objectives ticked off for all team members. The triggers worked allright, but the test did however reveal an error in the briefing.html text that has been corrected. As a bonus I added a BAF conversion of Escort Agency to the updated version 1.21.

Hi Sander, great mission packs, loving them loads!

Found a bug on 'Dump Struck';

When I try to blow/shoot the caches of ATGW launchers and missiles, 2 out of the 3 stacked crates at each location disappear way under ground, (If I ask my squad members to target them, they all point downwards when standing on top of their location.) thus not allowing the Obj's to complete.

Thanks

Re: Your spoiler, I did place the satchel right next to the bottom crate, but no dice. I was playing in Single player mode, but other than that no mods were being used.

An ammo crate will only burst into flames and proceed to sink into the ground after the damage has reached 1. It will not do so for a smaller value. Therefore if the bottom crate has sunk into the ground for each of the pair of caches the condition for the trigger is met (damage of 1 indeed being larger than 0.99). Both triggers have properly kicked off once the four caches in Sakhe have been blown multiple times in both SP and MP tests (

), so I would chalk it down to chance.

Sander
