Cool, ya the flare or smoke sound you hear is actually that, you walked through a
flare trip line. If you play at night you will see a flare up in the air
and it will light up the area, just dont be seen!

Played the mission today with a few friends - was fun. Thanks for your work.

Only question I have - from time to time we heard a sound like a flare or smoke grenade going off - what does that mean?

Hi, Yes i had removed it from the Singleplayer ---> Scenarios
as the mission is meant to be played through MP lan or on a server
so you can respawn,change the weather, the time, and many
other functions that you cant do in SP.

So my suggestion is to go to MP, host a server, set it to private by putting in a
password, make it 1 player, and then choose the soldier with (mortar)
so you can call in Mortar support.

Then go to parameters (top right) set the time, weather, grass density,
weapon sway, recoil, and then press continue, from there look at the map and choose
where you want to start any of the 3 camps.
From their pick your weapons and gear at the arsenal, and recruit AI if you want.

Hello, can you help me? I had your drug traffickers scenario on my list and it disappeared and I reload it but it doesn't appear on the list. Do you know if it has a problem?
Gunter Severloh  [author] 21 Oct, 2022 @ 11:59am 
Welcome, you dont need friends to play the mission is what i was saying before
as you said you should know what im talking about.
But like i said if you play through mp lan you can change the time, the weather,
choose where you want to respawn, and respawn, as well as your loadout
get saved on respawn and your body will delete on respawn.

Playing in singleplayer under Singleplayer ----> Scenarios
you cant save the mission, if you die its mission over, you cant change the
weather, time of day, weapon sway or recoil, ect,.

Kirgiz its good to see a fellow veteran i was also playing since 2000, been
editing and building missions since!
Anyways i will be updating the mission soon again as i want to add an exfil
aspect to the mission.
Kirgiz 20 Oct, 2022 @ 10:44pm 
Thanks for your replies! I understand how to play and set up. I've been playing ARMA since flashpoint back in 2000 and believe me I'm good at everything...
I just wanted to say that for a larger audience, you can leave the single if someone does not have friends online, and at least to get acquainted and have a greater opportunity to save and go to a bar, and then continue. Units in a single (other AI) can be playable for teamswich and I already wrote, it's good if the recruits are also playable.

But well ... This is your mission and your business how to arrange everything, thank you, of course it's up to you!:steamthumbsup:
Gunter Severloh  [author] 20 Oct, 2022 @ 11:32am 
Again watch the start of the video, i show you how to setup the mission
and get started and play https://youtu.be/nUwk2Ujgrx0
Gunter Severloh  [author] 20 Oct, 2022 @ 11:31am 
@Kirgiz
Respawn and go back to the player start, theres 3 camps you can go back to, you
wont get killed there. If your playing the mission with friends it should take you no more
2hrs if that. You can still minimize your game and go do what you have to do.
My suggestion is again respawn back to the player one of the player camps
and then you can stop playing the game and go do what you have to do.

As i said in an earlier comment, the mission is meant to be played through mp lan
or on a server, if you dont then you only start at one place, you miss out
on many features. Plus in SP the other playable units that your
friends can choose will be standing there and you cant do nothing.

@MrCatPlays
He basically wants to be able to pause or take a break from the game to
go do whatever, and then come back to it, which imo you should be doing
before you start a game.
MrCatPlays 20 Oct, 2022 @ 7:05am 
@kirgiz what on earth do you mean?
Kirgiz 19 Oct, 2022 @ 8:54pm 
You are in vain. It is not always possible to sit without a pause for 2 hours. The single allows you to minimize the game and do the necessary after finishing the game. Now, in order to play, you need to turn off the phone and close all the doors in my palace ... You shouldn't do something that is not suitable for everyone. Me and many people decide to play online or single, it will take the fans away from you:steamsad:
Gunter Severloh  [author] 19 Oct, 2022 @ 1:46pm 
I updated the workshop aspect of the scenario so the mission wont show under
the scenarios tab on the main menu of the game, so again if you want to play solo
in singleplayer then follow my instructions in the description "How to play"
and also watch the beginning of the video i linked below and i go
through setting up the mission.

Any other questions feel free to ask, cheers!
Gunter Severloh  [author] 19 Oct, 2022 @ 12:37pm 
Watch how i setup the mission to play it in singleplayer (mp lan)
https://youtu.be/nUwk2Ujgrx0
You guys that want to play SP are going to miss out on alot of features if you dont
play this through MP lan.
Gunter Severloh  [author] 19 Oct, 2022 @ 12:36pm 
I dont really understand what your asking.

Let me explain something, the mission is designed as a multiplayer mission which is meant
to be played on a server with friends.
So because of that there is other coding that adds more
features and functions to the mission such as respawn, choosing which player camp to start at,
changing the weather, time of day, stamina, grass density, and even weapon recoil and sway.

The title says SP/Coop because you can play this by yourself or with friends, so if your
going to play this by yourself then your going to play through MP lan which i have
instructions in the description in how to do.

You choose and adjust the parameters you want, and then once the mission starts
then you choose where you want to start at as there are 3 starting positions on the map.
Once your ingame then you can change your weapons and gear, uniform etc,.
and also recruit AI.
Kirgiz 19 Oct, 2022 @ 2:29am 
I passed it to singleplayer. everything was fine.
Kirgiz 19 Oct, 2022 @ 2:27am 
Thank you for playing pure singleplayer. Could you not kill AI teammates if a player changes roles in singleplayer?
So that it would be possible to recruit several squads and the AI might add a high command for the flight commander. And it is possible to make playable those AI that the player recruits into the group. This will be more convenient for playing with a veteran level. Thanks for your work.:steamthumbsup:

@honger
Mission is meant to be played through MP lan, not SP scenarios, its not setup for
singleplayer, thats why your seeing the ai standing there at the start.
Your missing out on features of the mission if you play it through singleplayer scenarios.
You cant respawn in singleplayer unless you play through MP lan, try through mp lan.

Thats how i design all my missions to be played through mp lan or on a server.
honger 18 Oct, 2022 @ 3:11pm 
@Gunter Severloh, oh alright, I didn't see any interaction on them and they didn't want to walk when I cheated them into my team so I wasn't sure. Thx for explanation
Gunter Severloh  [author] 18 Oct, 2022 @ 3:05pm 
@Johnnyboy,
Cool man figured you'd like a mission on Tanoa.

@Honger
Yes it is intentional to have the other playable units separate, you can recruit AI
at any of the player camps and thats the reason.
honger 18 Oct, 2022 @ 1:17pm 
Every teammate-to-be in a separate squad - is it intentional for single-player version or just an oversight?
Johnnyboy 18 Oct, 2022 @ 10:59am 
Looks very cool. Will give it a whirl as soon as I free up some ARMA trigger time. :)
Gunter Severloh  [author] 11 Oct, 2022 @ 4:15pm 
Cool! Bring your nvg's!
gregjlanders 11 Oct, 2022 @ 2:20pm
