@GOrgonPOrnstar you do recon activities. you start by doing recon and marking enemy positions, and as you level up you can unlock other opportunities while on mission (Like Ma Bell in the campaign)

A description of what this even is would be nice

Johnnyboy's Steam Workshop New Update Sep 23:

https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2812560646

Change Notes:

SOG AI updated to support Across The Fence missions. Note the following:
- Wait until you deploy on a mission before spawning your AI team
- You will spawn a new team with every new mission you deploy on (no way to keep your first spawned team)
- Sorry, but you can't use the cool new health system that comes with ATF. It's complicated, and requires
more work by me to merge that system with mine.

Thanks Johnny Boy.

I'd just like to say how excited I am and thankful for this to be released. I have read Tilt's books and I'm glad they are finally getting the attention and admiration they deserve.

Could we get a port of this over to altis please? This is a super fun solo scenario, however Im one of the people who dont have an actual rig i just play off a cheap laptop and the SOG maps always make my computer have an aneurysm. Other than that really good work on the scenario man

Is it possible to disable player markers? Maybe adding a parameter or something?

Just interested if there is any plans to add ace compatibility and also when can we expect to have at least some skills from the current unavailable skill trees

Thanks very much for the reply!

@Sir Comrade Klimik - It's something we've talked about, but hasn't been a priority for our (very small) team. There's plans to put a water-gathering element into ATF, but that's all that's on the roadmap right now. The items are there for other gamemodes to use (e.g. Life, Antistasi) if they want them, as much as anything.

@brendanbean95 - We've been getting this report a lot - I'm not 100% sure what's causing / affecting it as we do a lot of solo LAN testing. We'll try to get this fixed ASAP, as it shouldn't be happening solo.

@Full metal - Progress should be saved automatically to the machine hosting it. If that's not happening, let us know!

@Fishy - A lot of custom systems in this (Medical, Stamina, AI) that are needed to get the gameplay feel right, and the skills system working.

For the few comments on SOG AI - we're in touch with Johnny Boy, and happy to help if he wants to release a SOG AI version.

It bothers me that this mission doesn't involve ANY usage of the survival items in SOGPF like the medications or food items. Nearly all of them are still completely useless outside of the mike force mission framework 4 years later; with the exception of the food, dysentery and anti-venom meds. Mike force got an update yesterday with mainly bug fixes, and still doesn't add any usage of those small flavor items. Was all that work on modeling and coding them in for nothing? After a few years it seems like there is still no desire to add any gameplay value to these unique items, even as part of the Mike Force framework. No drunk mechanic from drinking the liquors. No cigarette smoking mechanic organic to SOGPF. Pain-killers, worm-powder, anti-malaria, and anti-biotics are all useless. For me atleast, this lack of item functionality degrades the roleplay experience of this mission and Mike Force. Please do something to implement these items in a way that allows people to interact with them

Does anyone have the issue where it says “failed to reserve zone” when trying to play on LAN/Solo? If so are there any work arounds?

@76561198286801699 doubtful it would be put into the scripts anyway. No med tends to be the way to go with their scripted missions.

@Aurora
That'd probably take a while before they start thinking about ace medical compatibility. I run ace too (For the Arsenal, because I need S&S to live), but I do it with a no medical patch for it. The Mod is in a really early open beta, so I have a feeling the thought of any sort of compatibility will be on the backburner for months, at least until the Mod's in a better state.

Great mission!

Does this save progress if my buddy hosts it over multiple sessions?

Could this be ported to other maps, with custom factions

@Full Metal

Run on the deticated server.

To get started, please make this mission ACE compatible. I had to keep using Zeus heal to patch my teammates up.
Now let's debrief based on my experience. I bet most players are not familiar with boat warfare tactics. They aren't armoured like an MRAP. Therefore, you can't drive through machine gun fire like what I expected. However, the enemy AI can't detect you from a longer range. Based on this circumstance, I recommend that people park the boat on the shore the moment they spot enemy gunboats; otherwise, they will rip through your vessel, killing everyone on board. Also, do this on all the objectives. The mission would be a lot easier if you could play with other players because AI manning the turret won't start firing until you are point-blank, just like enemy gunners. You could rack up a lot of kills doing this while suffering fewer casualties. I got 59 in my run.

I see the vision and I really love this, keep up the good work!

Is there a way to save progress?

@stburr91

That mission was cool too. Recon missions are my favorite. The hardest thing to do in Arma 3 is to avoid detection. You will be detected even with a silenced pistol.

OMG, there are about 1,136 scripts in the PBO file for this mission.

Programming languages: SQF 64.1%, Python 18.7%, C++ 16.6%, Pawn 0.6%. Interesting.

Yes, it's very similar to GM's Force Recon.

not compatible with so much stuff. ACE, remove stamina, etc

Is the progress saved throughout without a dedicated server?

Cosmonaut It's a filing cabinet located inside a hut very close to the TOC, on the left from where you spawn.

you say this can be played locally (by running a LAN server) or on a dedicated server.
does this mean i can't just run a client-side server?

Anyone know how to get the notepad site screen back when you're looking at the map? Double clicked it by accident and its gone.

Other than that absolutely fantastic game mode.

Hey in the settings it shows an option to add an object in the TOC to level up to level 5, I've turned it on but for the life of me cannot find this object

SOG_AI compatable?

It looks like a SOG version of the mission „Force Recon“ from the Global Mobilization CDLC.
I like the Focus mechanic, it's immersive.

SICK

knowing johnnyboy he already on an update, luv dat guy

Everyone go spam johhnyboy and tell him too make sog ai work

Thats why you guys are the GOAT

Doesn't work with SOG AI command mod due to the player group being lead by the AI commander. Beautifully done mod, though, and I'm eagerly looking forward to further updates!

I'm gonna ask just so my boys stop hounding me... Is this compatible with ACE Medical? (I bet it isn't)

Hell yeah!

Thank you!

Hi SGD developers. I'm looking forward to this mission and I appreciate your efforts to make best CDLC.

Can i use SOG AI with this?
