Use of the mission editor in events
« on: March 22, 2002, 05:00:25 AM »
Does it work?

Does it cause problems?

Would you recommend it?

What's the max amount of missions you can have running at the same time? (never seen more than one or two up at the same time in the MA)

What's the max amount of routes you can see in the map? (thinking of buffs + escort + jabo WP's mutually visible)

This tool seems perfect for event use, any hints why it's not more widely used?

 Ya, mission editor should work fine, as far as we know. The problems in the past associated with it were really terrain problems.

If Seeker want's to use it, just tell him to make his mission start times be 6:01AM, since game time start will be 6:00AM.

It has been used in previous events. But nearly 99% of the time I used it as a CO or joined a mission created by someone else, it failed to start properly.

Missions used in the last two frames of Sicily worked fine however. Perhaps they solved the problem.
