[SP] Apocalypse - Invade. Control. Conquer

Hmmm mrcash .... never had that.

Also not that had issue so far. Mostly being playing on Chern/Taki. One thing that I am having a issue with is getting a squad to drop/spawn.

I'm using the support menu to first place the target I want my support to be dropped at. I'm then choosing say the infantry squad from the support
menu. It takes the credits for this and then nothing happens? I look in the support queue and there is some items lined up for other squads but none
for my own. I played for about an hour after this to see if it was a timed thing. (waiting for the the planes/choppers to do the rounds) Still got no squad?

I requested things from the other menu — the armour support and I can see it starts to come directly to me and works great!

Thanks for this mission it plays great and there is so much going on with good performance so far!

Hiding on a roof in Taki at the mo with a clip in a AK while thre UAZs with gunners are circling. Would be a good time for that support!

Will it work with ace? No clue as I don't run ACE. Others played Lost with ACE and I think it worked...


Whether enemy helis are close to you at the start is really random. All helis fly in from the reinforcement points at the edge of the map and I don't have an option to keep them away. Just gotta get lucky I guess.

Support requests don't drop a infantry close to you. Like tanks requesting infantry support just tasks the nearest capable unit to travel to the support location. You should immediately see a group nearby add a waypoint to the location.

If you want infantry dropped to you order reinforcements through the reinforcements submenu. It seems you may be getting reinforcements and support request mixed up

Sorry yeah I mean I was ordering reinforcements to myself. I dropped a point down for them them to drop. I check in the queue for reinforcements after and it never seems to change. It's 7am in game time now and the first reinforcements on the list were supposed to drop at 620am. I think mine are in the list to be spawned just that they never get a chance maybe?

Still having a real good game on this! I was pinned down on that roof for about an hour picking my moment to sprint as my APC supports rolled into town! Give me just enough time to heal and get some ammo.

Back to it!

The mission sounds excellent, but I can't launch it with or without addons (excpet of course the addon for the mission). I even tried launching it from the editor, but to no avail.
I'll send the rpt if you want it, any help would be apperciated!

thanks, Stubs.

This is what im getting with enemy helis, I did forget to mention im using ACE + ASR_AI ... so im wondering if that's effecting the aggressive nature and the fact they are in the air and attacking as im parachuting down.

Would be nice to have a option for helis/attack air that can be set to "0" or "none" as an option.

For now I will launch without said mods and try things, really like it though.

Any chance of supporting Mcnools 2 maps & also Lingors counterpart desert version Dingor?

....and making it MP! No pressure, but it would be an awesome thing to play with others !

Got it to work by installing latest beta! however, the majority of the parachutes explode when they hit the ground.

Thanks for the mission! Stubs.

I am having a hard time with this mission... When I request reinforcements, they never seem to arrive...? How long should I expect to wait? I know there is a reinforcement que, but I never see my * next to anything so nothing ever arrives.. waited like 1/2 hour...
Also I don't understand any of the HC section... Any option I select does not do anything or give any hints... I guess I am asking is there a readme? I am usually able to figure stuff out but i can't seem to figure this one out.

Ok seems from your feedback that there may be a bug in requesting reinforcements. I can't

Sorry. Hit send by mistake

So anyway I can't promise a fix until I get back. So I would recommend not requesting any reinforcements until a fix is found.

As for issues with the hc commands please realize that those commands only work with groups you control with the hc module. By default none of your allied groups are under your control so pretty much any command you give through the comms menu won't work. Does that make sense?

If you have a specific on a particular command that you think should be working I can address that as well but right now I can only talk in generalities.

As for multiplayer. Woah I wouldn't even know where to begin on that. If anyone wants to give it a try more power to them
