[SP/COOP]DUWS - R DUNKIRK

Description
********PLEASE READ THIS*******PLEASE READ THIS********PLEASE READ THIS*****************
**********************AND YOU WON'T HAVE TO ASK ME SILLY QUESTIONS***********************

This is a modification of the original DUWS by Kibot and DUWS-R by the DUWS-R dev team. Full credit goes to those guys for creating the DUWS code.

Please see below for a description of how to play DUWS, and take my word for it, its one of the best persistent singleplayer and multiplayer missions out there.

In this modification you play as the British and Commonwealth Forces against the Wehrmacht, Panzerwaffe and the Luftwaffe.

Requires Mods to play, you'll find em all on the Arma 3 Workshop, links are to the right in required items. There's a few new ones, they're not very big though, just added more planes.

CHANGING THE MAP

I've set up a google drive for the .pbo just rename DUWS-R-Dunkirk-v2.SWU_Dunkirk_Bray_Dunes_1940.pbo to DUWS-R-Dunkirk-v2.altis.pbo and put the file into the MP missions folder in the arma 3 root directory.

HOW TO PLAY

Consult the map dialog options for how to play.

This is made to be played through multiplayer local hosting for SP or internet hosting for coop.

When setting up the game after setting up CP, AP, number of zones etc you'll notice two red buttons at the bottom of the dialog box, Start-R and Start-M. Start-R will randomly place the enemy zones (I don't recommend this as it picks the flattest areas which can often be on the edge of the map boundary where the map editor stopped creating terrain, it works better on island maps). Start-M lets you manually place zones by left clicking on the map. It can be difficult sometimes to get a zone where you want it, the flatter and less cluttered the better, although you can usually get it to go where you want it to.

AI Revive: AI in your squad will automatically revive you and your other ai squad members (only if played through Multiplayer LAN or hosted internet game)

Known Bugs:

MOST DUWS MISSIONS DON'T WORK ON DEDICATED SERVERS - THIS MAY CHANGE SOON!

AT guns aren't very good at killing tanks, purchase a Single High Command Tank from the request squads menu to guard your HQ and learn how to use high command on youtube.

Make sure to destroy or at least immobilise any empty german vehicles, mainly halftracks as if you don't they will not be despawned by garbage collection which deletes bodies and immobilised or destroyed vehicles. This will help performance.

Sometimes when selecting a side mission the game will freeze on the loading screen. This tends to happen more if you select 2.5km max distance from HQ in the options at the start of the game, 5km works better. This is usually caused by the code not being able to find suitable uncluttered and flat areas for the missions to spawn.

The ammobox support does not have british ammo in it yet as I don't have access to FOW ammo classnames. Buy the armory support and it will have a virtual arsenal.

Please notify me of any other bugs and i'll try to fix em, I'm relatively new to coding, and ENJOY!!!

Special thanks to UltraNoobian from DUWS-R and Jigsor=BMR= for all of their help.

New version coming out by monday for the IFA3 desert rats update, stay tuned!

Update:
Added more options for Special Operator type; Commandos, Essex Regiment and Anzacs can now be chosen in the parameters tab in the soldier select lobby.

Added US engineers and snipers to all special operator lists as the Brits don't have a soldier for them. (Just learn how to get them to pick up a new loadout that you make and drop on the ground in front of them, eg F2 then 6 then select inventory from the scroll wheel, drag and drop new loadout onto said soldier).

Updated the dynamic music script to use Ultimate music collection and SWU immersion sound pack which has many songs from fury, band of brothers etc. Both mods are listed in required items so turn up in-game music a bit for some atmosphere.....or don't.

Update:
Fixed an Error in the zones capture part of the code that did not allow for the enemy to recapture zones
Gave unlimited ammo to high command squads (not HC vehicles)
Removed Faces of War Compatability Patch as a requirement as it was sometimes creating issues when they update.
Removed the ability to play through Singleplayer Scenarios as this is meant to be played through multiplayer LAN (SP) or Internet game (coop)
Reduced the CP cost of planes as new Iron Front planes config made enemy planes way more deadly to ground units

There's a bug with the duws support system because of the ai revive script. When you respawn it adds another duws support to the 0,8 menu. This can be a problem as if that menu fills up to 9 then you won't be able to deploy FOB's. Working on a fix.

Updated - Ok, finally got something done. Cracked the AI Revive problem and the planes spawning on the ground thanks to Jigsor=BMR=. Removed sabs secret weapons as a required mod and replace it with 7Y Assets which allowed me to add Spitfires and Cromwell tanks to support purchases, high command and empty vehicle purchases (unfortunately they have vanilla crewmen, hopefully this changes at some stage). Make sure to get the new mod 7Y Assets WW2 before playing. I can now update all my other versions to DUWS-R, will take a while though.

Planes spawn on the ground? Its unlikely a mod issue. I suspect bohemia fucked something up, check if the functions you use to spawn them got changed or something. Also send me you spawn script in private and I will take a look.
LT.DANG  [author] 24 Feb, 2018 @ 5:37pm 
yeah, thanks for the reminder. Are planes still spawning? Somethings changed with
maybe IFA3 or something else, now planes are spawning on the ground and obviously can't take off in my other versions. Continuously chasing my tail when people change things.
