Description
Hello, hopefully more small unit style missions incoming.

This one should be playable but I don't think I will be adding much more polish as I got frustrated with trying to make such a script heavy mission at my current modding level.

Let me know if you find any bugs!

Please note:

-I have no idea why the camera wonks out at the start of this mission. To fix this just select one of you units on your interface and Shift-F to focus back on them to fix this. If someone knows any easy fix for this please message me.

-If you find it too difficult understand that I intended for the player to have to feel like they needed to break off from engagements to survive. The enemy A.I. shouldn't chase you across the map. The only failure is if all your soldiers die, so their survival is primary! However if you are too conservative with them you might not help your allies enough in order to complete the mission.

What historical event is this mission inspired to?

Broke the script by accidentally selecting the soldier walking slowly over to the radio truck.

Yep currently working on a another one, will just add it to this one, will still be small team of soviet scouts but more simple scripting than this one similar to the MOWAS2 skirmish maps etc.

Ok.....thanks for responding now that you've said it...after my sniper killed all the soldiers near the truck radio appeared slowly walking a soldier towards where the sniper was I marked him and made him run to the sniper to stop prevent him from being seen by soldiers in the village....then I sent for all the others and when they arrived...I noticed that the soldier had disappeared.....I didn't know that he had gone to the truck ...... until now .

How that objective works is once any of the player’s units are near the radio truck it will select a random player-controlled unit to go to the truck in order to “disappear” and operate the radio. If that soldier is halfway across the map and is selected, then he will very slowly attempt to walk over to the truck which can easily break the scripting (by getting caught in combat or some such.) Once that soldier reaches the truck he should stop, talk, disappear and then the main objectives should pop up. I think it will also break the objective if the player accidentally gives that selected unit an order by skipping the cutscene.

I was too much of a num-nuts to think that player’s might split up their squad to complete their objective.

TLDR FIX: Just make sure you take the WHOLE squad to the truck and so when it selects a unit he will be close and can reach the truck easily and don’t skip the cutscene and give that unit an order.

Hello, I really liked this style of mission....the case of the camera image pointing up, I don't know how to do it to help you but to play, it didn't bother me....I just played a little that was to capture the radio truck...I only used the sniper for this and it worked....after completing this first mission, I took the other soldiers to where the sniper and the radio truck were...but I don't know what to do now. ...no other message appeared informing what I should do to continue....is there a point where I should go to receive instructions for the next phase of the mission? I looked on the map and didn't see anything...it's full of enemies but no saw where is the continuity of this mission to complete.
