Description
A volcano erupted near Malden. Its explosion caused the ejection of materials into the atmosphere, causing unprecedentedly strong storms and earthquakes. Join the brave pilots from IDAP helping in this dangerous situation.

In this scenario, your mission will be to take the helm of a transport helicopter and complete a series of procedurally generated tasks (5 in SP. in COOP this number can be adjusted.) while avoiding otherworldly thunderstorms capable of destroying your helicopter.

Possible tasks include:
- Transport IDAP personnel between camps.
- Deliver Food Supplies.
- Deliver Medical Supplies.
- Deliver Offroad vehicle to outpost.
- Save a civilian boat from the sea.



WHAT THE HECK ARE "OTHERWORLDLY THUNDERSTORMS"?
These storms are areas about 1 km in diameter that move around the map. It's your job to avoid them, because if your helicopter gets caught in them, you're in for a shocking end to the mission.

But all is not lost if you get caught. The last chance for you is to turn off the engine and glide to the end of the marked storm area, or descending to less than 5 m should save you from being struck.



NO DLCS REQUIRED.



Procedural generation is used in the mission to make it fresh and interesting on every playthrough.
Everything from behaviour of the thunderstorms through IDAP camp locations to task types is subject to randomization.

Please note that this mission has a very wide range of difficulty due to the number of factors controlled by the RNG.




COOP mode is available for up to 8 players.

Takes somewhere between 20 - 25 minutes to complete the mission.

TheLockSmith I just checked and everything looks okay.
The way that you describe the problem it almost sounds like you were trying to say you have "skill issues" and can't fly them but I guess not what you mean.

Also I would like to remind that Mi-290 and Huron are from DLC if you don't own it you cant get into them. Then the Eh302 is your only choice. I don't know if that what is your problem since, again, specificity of your description is low at best.

I would like to help but some details are required for that to happen.

The Banana Box Thanks. Always happy to hear people are enjoying my stuff. :>

As far as other civilian centric scenarios go. I currently don't have any in the works. I absolutely don't exclude possibility of some in the future but they need to meet few qualifiers:
- they need to be unique and diffrent from things that I've already made.
- there needs to be a challage for players to overcome in the scenario.
- I need to look at that idea and be like "yeah, I would play that."

I will definitely make some demining mission/missions as IDAP in not so distant future if that peaks your interest but it's atleast two-three weeks away. I also always consider any and all suggestion so if anything worth making shows up the comment I will take that into consideration. :>

Really unique and fun level! Loved how tense it was to glide through the storms unpowered.

I know civilian operations will never be the most popular scenarios on the workshop, but is it possible you'll make any others similar to this? Maybe another helicopter-focused scenario where you drop off peacekeepers and evac civies?

No pressure obviously, just curious!
