Multiplayer settings for time & weather

[xjiks]

Some ideas:

 

When loading a mission in the MP menu, we should be able to set the desired time for the mission or possibly use the "computer time" to have the mission play the same time as current. Or a button to set "random" time.

Also the ability to choose the weather or set random weather directly from the "load mission" screen.

 

Because it's boring to have to edit the mission to change the weather and time. But depending of this, the mission can be a lot different and this extend the replayability of missions.

 

Second Idea would be that we could trigger the end of the mission and load another mission on the server.

For example "when all ennemy units are dead and all user planes are out of the combat zone" +time since trigger 600seconds; then display message to all "we won" and time since trigger +60 then load "mission 2.miz"

There is already a Load Mission trigger in the game.

From what i've tested, it doesn't work in Multiplayer, does it ?

 

 

EDIT: OMFG: it works !

Thanks Jona33

Yes it does. I've used it several times. Make a short MP mission and set a timed trigger to load a new mission every minute if you like just to test.
