Your supporting troops stop about a kilometer from Rogaine before the assault, disembark and then sit there for the remainder of the game. F-181 strafes the ATV when you're approximately 250m from rogaine before the assault begins. The other ground attack aircraft fortunately crashes into the mountainside.

no issues great scenerio

Yeah, there is a jet and a helicopter. If you go fast enough you should outrun the rockets. You can always take the hike on foot to be less noticable, but a car or quadbike definitely speed things up. If you are running any AI mods I can't garuntee anything though. I've only tested this mission with the vanilla AI from a few months ago.

I randomly explode on the way from the FIA outpost. No idea why. Might be that same jet the other guy mentioned. :csdmeh:

woooow........:steamhappy:

I assume you are going to the trucks after the base assault. Do you get in the truck, drive and then launch missiles, or do they do gun runs on the way to the truck?

I will look into it tomorrow either way. See if I can recreate it or update the mission for a jet delay.

Also, are you sure its the jet and not a helicopter (there should be one jet and one or two helicopters (its been a while since I played/edited this mission). Either way its still a pain and I get that, but knowing if its just one, or the other or both will help if I update what tirggers them.

no one else seems to be having the problem so i cant say you made a broke mission because its just me i guess. I unsubcribed , restarted the game , downloade it again and thought i was good to go we were cruising down the raod for about 10 seconds , then the death dealer came. I really want to play youre mission its killing me . (pun intended lol )
Easymorte 2 Aug, 2015 @ 4:49pm 
nope .. i have zero mods installed for this game. I get to the trucks , we leave a jet comes ripping over and kills me. if i wait and let them leave it kills them before they can even get 6 seconds up the road.
Joshua  [author] 2 Aug, 2015 @ 4:14pm 
The plane should only show up after you have finished the assault on the base. It and an AAF helicopter will attempt to kill you, but if you move quickly or go on foot, they shouldn't kill you and you can get outside of their agro range.

If you are using AI mods, that might cause the plane to be alot more lethal, if thats the case, try disabling them.
Easymorte 2 Aug, 2015 @ 2:34pm 
there is a jet that kills everything after we go to assault the base is this a joke or something:steamsad: lol
Easymorte 2 Aug, 2015 @ 2:24pm 
i mount up , follow the two trucks, and i get shot by a jet or something with in six seconds of leaving no mater what i do ! is it broken ? or am i not understanding the logistics of the mission here

Superbe, tout a fait excellent
SN4KE 18 Apr, 2015 @ 5:19am 
Great mission
Joshua  [author] 3 May, 2014 @ 4:15pm 
Should be updated.
Joshua  [author] 3 May, 2014 @ 3:41pm 
I will look into the officer bug, and the vantage point is at one grid coordinate, the recon team is at annother grid coordinate. That is why they differ.
indycar 3 May, 2014 @ 1:46am 
great mission

tho there are some bugs at the end of it. when killin officer i got "failed to kill him" and the vantage point text and comms are different.
Regular jackoff 1 May, 2014 @ 5:26am 
nice one! some suprises here and there. always some action going on around you and nice combat situations. well made sir
Joshua  [author] 29 Apr, 2014 @ 4:02pm 
Should be all fixed. Thanks.
Hell Rell [VIG] 29 Apr, 2014 @ 3:30pm 
Not so sure about that officer grid you gave at the end but when i took him down it said i failed but some how still got credit ll an all GREAT MISSION
Joshua  [author] 27 Apr, 2014 @ 5:17pm 
Thanks for the feedback fasad, its much appreciated. I like most of the suggestions. I just finished a massive programming project for one of my classes so I am not in the mood to program in ArmA tonight, but tomorrow I will definitely start working on some of your suggestions.
fasad 27 Apr, 2014 @ 2:59am 
This is a pretty good mission. I had no problems with the AI not fighting back (dev build).
*Good start to the mission, nice weather. Having an AI driving the boat away would add a bit of ambience to the mission.
*Giving the player a ride to the enemy base in one of the offroads might be better expecting them to take the ATV. You could add some chatter in the back on the way.
*Nice base assualt, very quick and brutal. Jets give good illusion of intelligent response but they didn't seem to fire (something was firing after I left, maybe it was them). Maybe they should bomb the base after a certain amount of time. A helicopter with troops would also be good.
*Friendly AI should not stay in enemy base, they should also flee!
fasad 27 Apr, 2014 @ 2:59am 
(Continued)
*I went up the radio tower but couldn't see the friendly recon team or any enemy. This task should be more clear, maybe give a grid reference of their location and direction of enemy approach.
*Fuel tanker going boom was satisfying :)
*Sniping enemy officer was too simple. He did no even take any evasive action when I missed him, he just lay down for a while then stood up again in the same spot. I didn't notice any enemy patrols or other threats to the player during this part of the mission, so the mission loses momentum.
*Nice suprise over the hill. The final return to the friendly base was also a bit mundane.

It's still a great mission, keep up the good work..
Joshua  [author] 2 Apr, 2014 @ 5:20pm 
I've tried playing it with out any mods whatsoever and with a few mods enabled (including the latest version of MCC). The bug you are saying sounds similar to an MCC bug I get occasionally, though I only experience it with units spawned with MCC. Without being able to reproduce the bug myself, I dont know how to fix the problem. Beyond this the only thing I can recomend is try unsubscribing and resubscribing so it redownloads, or try it from a different computer or ArmA profile. I dont know if any of those will work but I dont know what to do. I am sorry I cant find a solution and I appreciate the bug report. If you find anything else, let me know, and I will post something if I can figure it out.

Hi Joshua
I tried it again, same thing. The AI don't shoot back. But when I jumped in the chopper as pilot was the only time I was killed. Good Luck.. Byteman out.
byteman21 1 Apr, 2014 @ 10:13pm 
I don't have Mods installed, And they seem to ignore me and all the units. But I will try again and let you know.
Joshua  [author] 31 Mar, 2014 @ 5:55am 
Also, do they just ignore you or all FIA units?
Joshua  [author] 31 Mar, 2014 @ 5:07am 
The AI always work for me. Are you running any AI mods? I would try uninstalling them if you have any and then trying the map. I dont know how to fix it if the AI is fine when I play :( If you dont have any AI mods, are you running with any mods (if so what are they and can you try without them). While I was making it I played with quite a few mods enabled but mods are the only things I can think of that could cause this. If anyone else has this problem let me know. If more people are getting it, I can figure out what a commonality is and try to fix it.
byteman21 30 Mar, 2014 @ 9:26pm 
Let me know when you fix it I will try again. Thanks for trying.
byteman21 30 Mar, 2014 @ 9:25pm 
It seems all, I can go right up to an enemy and he will not shoot you. I notice it when we raided Camp Rogain.
Joshua  [author] 30 Mar, 2014 @ 5:44am 
Where are you finding this? Is it all AI or is it in one area?
byteman21 30 Mar, 2014 @ 4:31am 
The AI dont fight back?
