Clafgan suggestion

[=VG= Renainn]

Semler,
I know you have been hard at work on the mission, I had a thought about spawning last night.
When I had logged onto the clafgan server last night, the mission was messed up. The helo used to transport to Camp Branca and do HALO jumps from was not in the correct place and the pilot was out of the helo. Thus it could not be used for transport.

My thought is this. Is it possible to make a sign post that can be clicked on the get the transport to places like Camp Branca and the FOB? I can understand why the HALO jump stays with the helo, but the others are kind of static places.

This map is great and loads of fun by the way!

Actually the original teleport was tied to a flagpole (it can be attached to any object). I think Semler's idea was to have it be more 'realistic' in that you don't just warp to another location.. the chopper 'takes' you there.

I assume the chopper had moved due to someone crashing into it or hitting it with another vehicle perhaps?

Already been fixed. Wrapping up a 20 hour session, long overdue hotfixes and incomplete ideas now implemented. Final mission testing as of this writing; v0.94 should be live on the server within the hour.

new mission is live. And let me say, the deployable net for MHQ is SICK! I love it! Nap time now....online later.

[=VG= Renainn]

Sweet! Will give it a go!

[=VG= SavageCDN (Inactive Duty)]

Nice fixes!!! Checking it out now

I know this is a suggestion thread but I just wanted to pop in and comment on how great this MAP is and I tip my hat to the guys who collaborated to make this possible for the ArmA community!!
Keep the missions coming, I cannot get enough of this stuff :)

Is the sniper air strike and plt comm artillery switched off or bugged at the moment?
Air strike gives a can't see the laser message, and yes it's switched on, and Arty just does nothing.


Also, may be worth considering limiting the A-10s to only one active at a time if possible. Bit overkill when there are 2 or more up at once.

@Calv,

See me ingame and we'll figure out what is what.

[=VG= Calv]

Both arty and sniper air strike seem to be working fine in new update.

[=VG= SemlerPDX]

Newest update should resolve many of these issues! Glad you've had a chance to play it, Calv! So happy you've stuck around since our venture into ACE Insurgency was canned. We have ACE/ACRE on the horizon, as you may know, but we wish to get a Vanilla version of this mission up for the masses first.
!cheers

Regarding the new mission with the AO not showing for pilots/crewmen.
It seems that when you join the server the current AO doesn't show, which I assume is working as intended, but when the current task is complete, the next AO red circle or ? appears on the map but obviously without any of the task information. Not sure if this is intentional or not.

[=VG= SemlerPDX]

Well, I will come in and check it out. Also, was not intentional removing the AO from crewmen until they had their own tasking. Sorry about that. It's on the fix list for post-RC version. See you soon

SemlerPDX,

Outstanding work on the CLAfghan missions, this map just continues to show improvements to an already quality experience!!!

Keep up the great work :)

Possible bug:
Was moving the mhq via chinook lift, as I lowered it down near the AO and released it, maybe 20m off the ground, the mhq teleported to an area near the bottom left of the map. May have been caused by the area I was releasing it in not being completely clear.
Ended up having to use the teleport to mhq option and satchel charging it.


Bandage system: Not sure if it is working as intended yet. Noticed that after receiving a bad wound and getting the info about using a tourniquet after applying a bandage. I healed at a MASH then a short while later started to bleed again, healed at the MHQ, and again a short while later started to bleed again.
