Phantom Hornet Posted December 9, 2022 Posted December 9, 2022 I'm wondering if anyone can teach me how to build a campaign that contains missions that are not visible or selectable on the campaign menu. This was accomplished by the Raven One campaign developers but I can't see how they did it. The idea is to have a point in a mission where once you reach it, an option will be unlocked that will allow you to skip that portion of the flight the next time you play the mission. However, you should not have this shortened mission available to select as a separate mission on the campaign menu. To clarify I'll use the mission "X" and "Y" as an example. 1) I create a mission called "X" and the next mission in the campaign called "Y". 2) Once you reach waypoint 3 in mission X, a message pops up saying "The next time you fly this mission, you will have the option of skipping the previous portion of mission X". 3) I create mission "Xa" which is the same mission as X except that a message pops up in the beginning of the mission saying "You can skip ahead to WP3 by using the F10 menu". 4) The next time you load the campaign, you see mission Xa on the campaign's mission list, not X. 5) I create mission Xb which is a shortened version of X, missing everything prior to WP3 and starting the aircraft in the air at WP3. 6) Once the player selects "skip to WP3" in the F10 menu, mission Xb is loaded. 7) If you acquire enough mission points in X or Xa or Xb, the next time you load the campaign you will see mission Xa and Y available but you will not see mission X or Xb available. This seems to be what the Raven One developers did. How?
