Yeah, it's an old mission (pre-eden, even), so it might be victim to changed class names etc. Thanks fro the heads up, I'll see if I can fix it if I find the time

No UAV terminal on any teammates, but once added via arsenal the rest of the mission works still fine, ping and extraction. Very cool concept. Thanks.

I've found that ship but the bearing is totaly wrong. Besides of this there is NO suitcase, only 2 dead bodies.
And what is so difficult in SP to give the teamleader a terminal instead of a GPS???

When you get a bearing, it's from the UAV's current position to the sunken ship... so, in theory, get two bearings, draw lines from them, and where they intersec, that's where the ship is located

I've been at this for about two hours with a friend. AA was easy, but we cant understand what the bearings mean? Is it relative to the ship from north or from the angle of the UAV at the time? I have not spent this much time to quit so if you could help me here, I would really appreciate it.

This was a great little mission but the only issue I had was the mission wouldn't end when I go to the extraction.

Great mission, was very fun to play!

Tested this with 4 players on dedi environment. Very nice mission. No bugs encountered, and all worked just fine.

We liked:

- Excellent briefing
- Novel 007 style idea.
- Nice atmospheric daytime/weather setting
- Nice intro : )

While less action oriented missions are nice change from the usual "go there, kill en masse" style missions, there could have been some limited direct action involved. Lasing the AAA's with periscope was great fun, but there could have been one AAA/target which would have required landing and taking care of it the old fashioned way.

In general, very enjoyable mission and thumbs up!

Will give it another shot.

The new version now adds UAV terminals to all players, to compensate for the lack of inventory functionality under water. It also fixes the bug that prevented players from picking up the football.

Well without a UAV terminal or any way to call for them while in the SDV it was a whole lot of nothing. I like the premise but it just needs way more work before it becomes a viable mission to use.

I found the ball! And that with only one uav ^^. Problem is, I cant secure it. It does nothing :(

Good point about the inventory acces and the missing UAV terminal on the leader.

Argh, and of course, I write threads again... I always do that -_-

Thanks

Ok, in SP you don't have an UAV terminal as the Alpha Team lead. This means you can't use the UAVs unless you teamswitch to Alpha 3 or fiddle with the inventory.

Inventory doesn't work under water and teamswitching means that the new Alpha 1 goes to mess around with enemy attackboats and helicopters it can't really touch. And subsequently got the SDV destroyed and the other three killed. /facepalm.

The second UAV decided it was a better idea to take off from the road to the east of the airstrip and taxi'd into the forest after running over the nato sentries. Le sigh.

Also found a small typo in the briefing->execution. Threads should be threats.

All in all though it's a very neat idea and I liked what you guys made. It's quite fun besides Arma being Arma.

The "Send Ping" will become availabel to the UAV operator while controlling the UAV (either the pilot, or the turret). I'll add some explanation to that end to the briefing

Thanks for the feedback, I'll check the issues ASAP

I found the football but the menu 'secure football' has no effect on it. The task cant be completed.

one of the team can connect to the uavs

Truly enjoyed the mission to that point.

Played this scenario three times, destroyed all three AA sites and never got the chance to send ping? I'm still confused as to how to fly in the UAV's. We have no "send ping" command in the subs. Do we have to get out on the island to send pings or fly the UAV's.

Well, you need to fly in the UAV's and use the "Send Ping" command to make them send out a signal. This will tell you the bearing from the current UAV position to the wreck.

very nice. After killing the AAA I just wait for the UAVs to do the triangulation?
