SYNDICATE MP server

I set an airfield for bombers in Ramsgate, further from the south coast in order to allow them to get a good altitude, with Manston next to it for escort/intercept.

Three airfield's on the south coast for fighters.

AA at each airfield, and a couple of locations for radar (unsure if they actually do anything on their own).

I did the same for the Blue team. Bomber airfield located at St-Omer-Arques, escort/intercept at St-Omer-Wizernes.

I have noticed that sometimes aircraft spawn in a house.. with that they explode, but I'm not sure if there is a way to sort that or not.

All spawn's work though, I did basic testing as I could.

Feel free to use it, have it tested, and changes can be made. The mission can be expanded to include locations for the bombers, whether that's buildings or columns of tanks, boats etc.

Not too sure what's possible with scripting, could be nice to have a time on the map, and perhaps some basic scoring system or objectives.

Seems you have some issues.. but feel free to test the mission if you like.

If I can get this sorted, I sure will m8! Thank you!

Really! Can you explain how you did it or how you know you got it to work? What do I need to setup in the config? Perhaps you could add me to steam? "tagmaster2" is my ID

I guess it's those ones.

Yep!

[LeadFarmer]

ok, I figured it out. launcher default location is quick missins folder.

[ATAG_Bliss]

Hmm, that didn't work for me. Tried putting the mission in the quick missions folder and got an error map would not load. So then I took the same mission and put it in all the folders (lol I know) loaded the same mission and now it says "mission loaded!" at the bottom.

I don't know anymore than that though

But there is no dedicated s/w yet for a server, so you have to host it through the game menu.

LeadFarm might be the best to ask how to set a nice one up, as he has that 24/7 one at the moment with the English Channel map.

The realism settings you want for the server are set from the game menu options. It just carries over into the server.

Setting a server up in-game is a doddle. Just go to mulitplayer, sever, select map, and start battle.

Will you be required to purchase 2X to host a dedicated server at a colo as well as your copy at home?? Anyone know??
