Lost in Lybor is a lone wolf type of mission in which you, as the sole survivor of your team, have to complete your team's objectives and extract from the AO. The mission can be quite difficult at times and the terrain of the map can work both for and against you, there should be enough freedom of movement to try various approaches to objectives.

Estimated time to complete the mission is between 60 and 90 minutes. Some parts of the mission are less action-packed than others, you will encounter both densely populated towns and seemingly desolate forests.

Sides:
BLUFOR - US (player)
REDFOR - Russia + Separatists

Possible Performance Issues
The mission can run quite poorly at times (especially during the first half). From what I've gathered, it's not the number of AI pulling the performance down as much as the terrain itself. I suggest lowering your view distance as the valley is probably densely filled with objects and this way, the game won't have to deal with so many of them. Using dynamic simulation didn't make performance for me better, but lowering view distance (didn't have to be somehow drastic with it) gave me a good amount of extra FPS.

Known Mission Issues
1.: You might get a missing picture file error, thankfully that has no impact on the mission and I have no idea why the error is there. The picture is there, the name checks out but Arma is being Arma with it sometimes. You might or might not get this error. It changes nothing about the gameplay at least.

2.: The map spawns dogs - you cannot pet them.

Hints
1. (Extraction): You don't have to go all the way towards extraction, mission end will trigger some distance away from it to save extra minutes of going through annoying terrain with no enemies.
2. (Objectives): You don't always need two explosives to blow up two trucks.
3. (River Transport): Using bridges is risky, there are two boats on the northern side of the river that you can use to get across quickly. You should really need to cross the river only once.
4. (Officer Intel): The intel mentioned in one of the task's description can be found by getting to the officer's body after you kill him. There is an action that lasts 10 seconds and gives a short monologue telling you about the radio tower and the supply depot. The monologue displays only once and you won't get the info again, if you need it again: They are at the same place, south-east of the HQ.
5. (Combat): There is enough ammo and weapons to deal with everything, but you don't have to kill everyone, focus on the objectives and dip out when it's safe.
6. (Equipment): More explosives or RPGs with ammo to complete your objectives can be found in task areas.
7. (Equipment - NVGs): There are NVGs you can find on the map, if you're afraid that you won't see anything when it gets darker, you can use them. However, you should have enough time to complete the mission before it gets too dark.

As hint 7 states, NVGs can be found during the mission and it shouldn't take so long that it gets too dark to see without them.

Good mission idea but bad bad bad and no sense criteria without NVG or light. I waste my time to going supply point but i get the night and i dont see nothing so i eas aborted this mission. :steamfacepalm: THIS TYPE OF MISSION TO DO BAD PUBBLICITY TO NICE WORK OTHER EDITORS ! :steammocking:

Glad you enjoyed the mission!

And yeah, I like when even single missions have some context around them, like the friendly team mentioned in my mission that doesn't even appear in it. It does create possibilities for other scenarios too. :)

Nice setting and this scenario is fun to play, a good topic for continuation (also on other similar maps such as Šumava, Gabreta or Livinia). Thanks!

To be specific, NVGs can be found at the supply depot and the HQ

Glad you liked the mission!

You play as a US soldier against enemy forces composed of Russian and separatist troops. (I'll also add it into description.)

What are the sides of the conflict?
