Single Player
- Fixes applied to skirmish missions - simplified assignment of player units at start (sp/coop). - Player is able to skip scenario which triggers soldiers assignment which in turn could kick before soldiers arriving in starting vehicle(s) are still in or out of vehicles - Previous script had a chance for soldiers in animation of disembark not being detected as either linked or not linked and ending up not being assigned. Now, this is fixed
- Fixed Tutorial Mission 5 "Trial by Fire" - Added fail-safe so that if player uses all ap/at mines he is not blocked from progress. - Engineer truck arrives and auto replenishes specific mines if tasks are not complete and specific mines are depleted in the truck. - Fixed pathing which lead to reinforcement truck weird movement. - foxhole task now is accompanied with green zone area indicating where to build foxholes to complete the task - play task new sound instead of complete when showing task to defend vs counterattack
- Fixed for German mission "Among the Heavens" - part1 end(alarm or stealth) and part2 start scenarios played only (with skip ability) in single player. Coop skips the scenario outright and executes skip events - part1end(alarm or stealth) / part2 / part3 handling of player units (>ai>delete>add>select) cleaned up and made coop secure and proper order of operations (actorstate/ables > player > autoassign) - fixed chances of certain tags being removed before other command executed on them - added capture_hotel zone to make player actually be within steps of the hotel for capture. - clean up and fixes to most calls around part1 end and part2. Avoid player# in commands unless you are certain and you need it, for coop purposes. - whenever selector is MID# remove player# requirement check in commands. - part2 groups use waypoint selector for tag changes on spawn instead of selector, avoid player# in commands.
