Online / multiplayer missions go here

Thanks a lot mate!! The included script really helps.. i believe i understand the key components now.. time to get mission building.

Your help has been invaluable.

from a rookie in scripting and Visual C or whatever:to all FMB ers and to mcler002 in particular (his BoB mission worked for me):is there a way to post a simple (if possible) tutorial on how to make a proper COOP (only one mission) with humans and AI's. Think the community would appreciate (well i would)
Thanks in advance

With lots of help from the scripters on this forum I have made my first scripted mission.

It uses a trigger at startup to load one of 9 submissions.
It also uses a timer to load sub missions later in the mission.

Works fine for me.

Thanks again for all the scripting examples.

Updated the mission to 2 player CooP/Dogfight.

Place folder in Multi/Dogfight

Select main file to start.

Fly as Blue [2 Emils at Caffiers]

Now loads a random sub mission at startup and a random sub mission roughly evey 5 mins. 9 sub missions in pool.

I love this idea of random submission selection! Will try to steal it from you for my next mission )

Thanks for sharing!

I can not get the randomization part to work as I wrote here
http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showpos...&postcount=109
and here
http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showpos...&postcount=111

Could you have a look please.

UPD. fixed.

Why do you need the first part in your script with a trigger?
Did you check if it works without the first part? May it be the case that the 1st part is working but the 2nd does not as I included only the 2nd part in my script?
