Question, when we spawn in the ocean, we spawn with our table and virtual ammo box, and they just sink. Once we pick where we want to be, the table with our two selectors spawn, but the ammo box doesnt, and none of it works anyways. Any way you can fix this?

@Tankboy1701 hello!
1) All actions was rebinded to laptop
2) you should start the game, then you can choose your perk in laptop as usual
3) crates with ammo and grenades (known from VR Fortress) were removed in Altis Fortress, as far as I remember... not sure about it, but if I forgot to remove them, then yes, they just sinking every restart. But don't panic, you always can spawn new boxes, just press Right ALT button and the build menu will appear :)

@Fess Good day!

Hmmm... Well, for some reason, you can't choose your perk.. Not sure why. YOU CAN choose it IF you get to the laptop before it sinks. That's the only way. When you choose your base point to defend from, yes, the table with the laptop spawns, but you can do anything with it, it's just a prop, therefor you aren't able to actually use it to choose your perk.... AND, when I mentioned the ammobox earlier, I was talking about the Virtual Ammobox Script (Virtual Reality Arsenal), where an ammobox spawns under the table with the laptop and such, but you don't use the box for actual storage, but for creating your class (in arma, the thing where you are looking at your character and you pick your clothes and such) . So, all actions were rebinded to the laptop, therefor Virtual Ammobox should be on the laptop, buut, as said, the laptop doesn't want to work when you teleport.. /: Still anyway to fix this? Thanks.

(P.S. - I'd like to thank you for creating VR Fortress/Altis Fortress in general! A very very fun scenario for Arma, and you did a damn good job creating it!)

@Tankboy1701 okay, listen then. There is an issue with BIS addAction command, sometimes actions mystically dissapear (like in your case), some players already asked me about it. As I figured out, this issue appears mostly when you run the mission in singleplayer, so I suggest you to try it on your server (if you did not tried it yet). There is also another way, which must fix it - just resubscribe, the Steam will redownload the file, it should help.

P.S. I just ran the mission, works fine for me.
But I still updated the mission to be sure you will be okay.

I added #3 note just to be sure I answered your question :)) As I said before, all actions were rebinded to laptops on the table, but due to described issue you can't see them... though they are there, and they will appear once you find a way to fix this.

Heya, my friend and I spawn in the ocean too. I'm the administrator, and our table sinks too. We cannot place it somewhere else and it keeps pushing the GUI so I can't move very far. Obviously we wouldn't like to have a base in the ocean, and it spawns the base and enemies in the ocean.

ALRIGHT: IT WORKED. But now the building is... somewhat working, at best. None of the controls listed work, and it makes building anything extremely difficult. Yes I have a starter pistol and doing the controls for the starter pistol, and exactly like said. Which it doesn't do any

@Isuzu Sento What type of keyboard do you have? I guess it's AZERTY keyboard?

I did not test the mission keyboard handler with AZERTY type of keyboards, only QWERTY type tested. Location of buttons may be confusing for AZERTY users...

Nope, QWERTY. It seemed to be a little buggy, but in the end the ACP worked the most reliably.
Oh Great Fess The maker of the Fortress mission May you live a long live . exe civilaztion currupt restarting . Time to get Serious! As of Keyobard keys as you desbribed further Some of the keys wouldent work at all or at random work we where running the mission on a server And experinced several problems you might be able to fix First of all this might that i put on endless mode but before we tried to start the wave which dident work . almost none of us could chose perks now again endless mode but Most imporantly only 1 guy could acces the virtual arsenal . And Do you know how to load a castle on a dedicated Server we took a copy of it before we started we tried saving and reloading so everyone could remove blocks since we had problems that certain people F key for delete dident work it also might work in the start then go away later? . Anyways THis is a very fun scenario i played it one other mate But its not fun when it dosent work like most thing . Leonidas Reporting out!

@[HOS]KingLeonidas hello xD

Properly work is not guaranteed on dedicated servers, sorry. As about buttons, perks and VA: The Arma 3 system is pretty buggy, sometimes nothing works as expected.

All I can is to suggest you to resubscribe and redownload the mission and play it on listen servers (not dedicated). If none of buttons work (test it only with M1911 in your hands!) try to restart the mission through ESC menu.
Ahh Okay well its kinda sad we kinda bought a server for playing coop missions your one of the awesome onces do you think you can make this usable on dedicated server . We did try to resubscribe and redownload it on the server . Soo i'm asking oohh great Fess Maker of the fortress mission Will you lead this Gamemod to glory? will it stand the test of time . will you try to make it usable for a dedicated server contact me if you need a test server

I tried several times xD Honestly, I don't want to mess with all those scripts again. The code is open source, maybe somebody else will adapt it for dedicated servers.
