Thanks ATV! Got the IP. Errrgh. Ok, so I'm getting "Bad version, server rejected connection" error and red X next to the server name when I paste the IP in Remote. I am running 1.38.128937 and I know the 66 mods are updated according to PWS and activated because I can see the row of them on the A3 main screen. I am able to join other servers (e.g. KotH) without mods...what gives? Arma3 updated recently. Server has been running since before that happened. Had to take down the server to update it. Working now. Initially the first time I tried it, there was no red X but I tried joining several times and it just immediately went back to the multiplayer screen. So, then I thought maybe the server was running the latest beta, so I opted in for the beta on steam, then saw server was running 1.38, so opted back out of the beta and pushed back to 1.38.128957. Is the server still running the exact 66 mods shown on the PWS subscription? Quote HistoryQuoted:

Awesome, works now, was able to join!
AI is pretty decent as compared to A2. They aren't blind, yet they don't one shot you from 800 yards either. When I first joined I had no gear and no map, took the backpack on the ground, got in the heli and did the HALO... Anyway, I land near these 2 houses by these couple civilians, start getting shot at by 2 ISIS. Having no weaps, steal one of the civvy's cars and run over the 2 schmos that were shooting at me.  Now I got an AK and more importantly, a map!
See insertion point on the map and go there and find gear, all COMBLOC. Go off on my merry way with a RPK and technical. Goto first red area, get shot at, kill a couple guys, then get killed. 
I like the fact that 3rd person is disabled (realistic), but damn if I ain't hitting Enter on the NumPad out of habit every five minutes.

Yeah we were playing on it earlier and got the base taken over already. Looks like I need to add something for new joiners to pop in the base once it is secured....
The FOB has the virtual arsenal, any gear combo you could possibly want. |

I respawned there I think, and if that's where I was when you logged on. Quoted:

Mohammed did not like the fact that I killed some of the ISIS in his town...he actually walked over and inspected the body. Mohammed later died running through a crossfire when he got spooked.
Some other of the ISIS in his town that met an unfortunate end: 
Everytime I spawned I was back at the HALO heli spot...I never found a GPS and no map that I picked up would work. I got the "Cannot connect to the positioning system" on the Map page even though I had a map on me. Without a map, I couldn't find the FOB, and had to keep rearming from the insertion cache. Also, is there something special that is required for you to give yourself saline, blood or plasma? I "lost a lot of blood" but despite having all 3 of those, found no option to administer blood. Apparently it should be under Advanced but it was blank for me. Finally, there IS an option to set a key for the weapon rest/deploy...you goto controls then "Configure addons" then set a bind for CSE in the dropdown list. And it doesn't deploy automatically from what I can see, you have to hit the key you bound and the icon changes from [sandbag and tiny space in between gun] to [gun touching sandbag]. |

I think I broke something this morning while editing the mission. Fixed and verified that the map works now. There are maps in one of the crates at the insertion point. Also you can hit "m" for map and go to tasks and set repo man (when it is assigned) as your current task and it will point you toward the FOB, even without a map. Next mission is basically done, but It won't launch on the dedicated server atm. Once I get that glitch figured out there will be another mission in the rotation. |

We had like 4 of us a couple says ago and it was a blast.. Until my dumb cat turned off the server comp 
Next mission in progress will be to hunt down an ISIS asshole known as the "The Slayer". He's the one called in to butcher kids when ISIS conquers a new area. Also plodding away at getting a reinforcement script working, so we can paradrop quickly back into the action. |

Now you'll be able to paradrop in to nearby other players. This will cut down the time it takes to get back in the action. Added to the Ukraine mission. |

Next mission is ready to go. There is now a third way to get back into the action:
1: Two pods that can be dropped by the Taru. You can 'port back and forth to the base from these pods. Makes for a moveable, semi-static 'port point. 2: Paradrop reinforce: choose a spot on the map within 100 meters from another player. You will paradrop from 3500 meters at that location. 3: **New in next mission** An2- paradrop. There is an An2 at the base. Everyone (including the pilot) can paradrop from it once it is above 175 meters. As a bonus the An2 is armed, 500 rnds of .50cal and 4 mk 82 bombs 
The paradrop script allows you to keep your backpack, no need to grab a parachute. I will change over to the new mission once someone can tell me how the Ukriane mission ends

myself and dj nex almost cleared the server tonight but I think I broke it. we were supposed to get intel from a guy in a tower and I blew up the tower, the intel never came man IT NEVER CAME.

Mission was called "The Underling" We saw a dead guy floating in the air which we presumed was the guy that had the intel. We had no way of getting to his body to retrive the intel and then he suddenly disappeared effectively stopping us from being able to move on to any new missions.

Mission tweaked to hopefully alleviate the game stopper. He's on the ground now and I set the garbage collection to not delete the body..hopefully it works as intended.
Remember to search the guy (scroll wheel) to get the intel. |

Before after it downloaded originally I tried launching the collection, but ended up always connecting to KOTH servers with no mods installed. Okay, so deleted that, and now its redownloading the 2 newest mods.. By the time its done downloading I have to leave.. lol |

there was a computer up there to put codes in, but uhh there may have been a stray round or something that hit the tower. So the bomb was never defused, although I suspect that entering the code will actually trigger a plane to drop a bomb on my location.

Ok so the tower is technically a static object that is added in through some voodoo magic in the first place. I can't edit it to make it unbreakable. Best I could do is add another layer of walls around the bunker (tall concrete ones). I also made the laptop unbreakable just in case.
