    How to abort/cancel mission without saving?

    Like topic - say I was just fooling around and want to quit but do not want to "suspend" (= saving) some mission.
    I cant seem to figure this one out... even alt-f4 saves before it quits, lol

    I usually kill my character to avoid the savegame.

    I suppose you could make an addon that will fail a mission on command.

    It's only a "temporary" save anyways; when you continue the mission again it will start from that point; but if you die/fail it will load the last save (either auto or manual).
    You could also disable autosaving in the options and see if that works

    Yeah this bugs the life outa me sometimes. when on a mission and everyone in your squad is injured and lying on the floor do the dying fly. You can't quit out of the mission without saving it and you cant kill your Character because you can't do anything, so it's right back to the start of the mission because you cant restart because you will always restart at this point.
    Could it maybe be made an option? "do you want to save this mission yes/no ?"

    use revert when loading the mission, then you get to play from the start again.....

    place the following code somewhere in the init.sqf and that will stop the problem..

    Code:
      // stop the annoying "Saving File" that occurs in MP editing mode every time you abort
      enableSaving [false, false]; // Saving disabled without autosave.
