#SEM - Simple Epoch Missions v0.8.1 + 0.8.3 test

[ro1and]

One is not related  to the other . Epoch and SEM are seperate

But armored trucks staying on they places even after restart. But Strider - not.

And how i can set up that mission strider saves to DB?

[ro1and]

One is not related  to the other . Epoch and SEM are seperate

I'm using SEM 0.8.3. There is no @SEM folder.

I just want that captured strider persisted to the database and not disappear after restart.

What have i do for this?

[emwilsh]

Manythanks

[Mr Madness]

my players keep getting kicked for battleye restriction 39 but yet i have copied excatly the other filters on here. help please

[Darth_Rogue]

Remember that if the restriction from the log is line 39 you need to paste the filter onto line 40.

[SadBoy1981]

When we can get 0.8.3 ? Waiting update... =)

Hey dude...

 

look into the Spoiler  at the end of Kilos first post (page 1).

[VAKE]

Thank you for creating this mission system. I like the base layouts, the mission markers and the added dialog and audible notification when a mission starts.

 

One thing I would like to ask about is the "mission failed" parameters. If I approach a mission and get killed, the mission often fails before I can make it back upon respawning. Is there a single line somewhere that can be adjusted to increase the time before a mission fails? How about the distance to the mission before it starts?

 

(I apologize in advance if these questions have already been asked/answered)

[ulli_123]

Coming soon an update of the test version?

Anyone else?

 

Nothing showing in the log files or rpt...

@ Mikemike

 

hey,

 

the right logs would be helpful :-)

 

\Arma 3\SC   and then: the last "arma3server_............rpt"

 

However, if you follow the instructions, then nothing can go wrong

[hawkeye]

Thanks for all the Work,

Implemented it fine on my panthera 3 server.

 

Missions spawn in the mountains and nicely placed on the airfied. 

 

Thanks.

[chrisa]

Nice missions!

 

1 problem.

i have vemp, a3eai and yours running on my server.

Or your mission runs or the vemp mission runs.

After the restard its or the vemp mission or your mission.

But i cant seen them both running the same time.

Do you know how to fix that?

 

Thnx

[ilganna]

Hi Kilo,

 

it seems that after upgrading to A3 1.40, for some reason, the static mission spawns a couple of time and when finished, it doesn't spawn anymore.

 

I checked the logs and saw that the players completed successfully the static mission, but after then, only the dynamic one was respawning... (no errors generated btw)

 

Using 0.8.3

 

Maybe it's an isolated case, but I would like to let you know...

 

Thanks

[KiloSwiss]

Thanks for all the feedback.

I will look into the reportet issues.

Greez KiloSwiss

[ScaRR]

Running version 0.8.3. 

Runs well with A3EAI and VEMF. I run VEMF, then SEM and lastly A3EAI in my init file.

 

The only issue I have is that all the vehicles are enter-able and as mentioned in the readme the main vehicle is not persistent and doesn't save to the database. 

Thanks for your hard work Kilo much appreciated.

This is probably a stupid question. But is it possible to have 2 missions going at the same time ? or can i install the mod twice ? and call it twice ?

I have wondered the same thing, like having two static mission threads.

[prone]

I have wondered the same thing, like having two static mission threads.

 

I'd personally love to see an option in the new version to allow this, and also the ability to disable the convoy mission.

You can, you just remove it from the mission rotation list.

[Mjolnir]

For 8.3 Can I install just it and the BE filter from 8.1 ? or do I need to set up 8.1 and then Add the items from 8.3?  I have installed things wrong to many times and want to be sure before I proceed with installing SEM now.
