Neon Posted July 29, 2017 Posted July 29, 2017 In the user files he goes by KappinHook, but we all know how those never line up with the forums. I am trying to get ahold of him because I want to build more sub missions I. The mission but I need his lua file to do so otherwise I am shooting in the dark. Anyone know him/her or were I can get ahold of him/her? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Neon Posted July 30, 2017 Author Posted July 30, 2017 I tried but the sub missions lua file is not in there. I think the mission editor just put the code into the mission file. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
doodenkoff Posted July 30, 2017 Posted July 30, 2017 So then it follows that a "sub mission" lua doesn't exist in the mission file. What you get in the .miz file is the entirety of the mission. Win 10 | i7 4770 @ 3.5GHz | 32GB DDR3 | 6 GB GTX1060
Grimes Posted July 30, 2017 Posted July 30, 2017 Lua files for missions get placed in the l10n/default folder within the miz file. So that is where you will find the MsnData.lua. You will also see any audio and briefing files in there. As far as the mission itself goes, its not super complicated. The lua file it runs on spawning a group is simply to display the briefing for a given task. The actual spawning is just done with triggers. The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world.
