Meanwhile another script destroying abandoned planes from ru forums. Tell me what you think of it.

I think just like in real life you order (with a script) your units to rtb when it is getting dark. Then they have a rest till early morning.

I think you can stop mission with a script like you can stop real life: kill all units, stop time and that's it.

Quote a Dev:

Выгрузить - это сложно, миссия же может по скрипту кого-то нарожать, что-то в себя подгрузить и т.д

"To unload (a mission) - it is difficult, because a mission can give birth to something using scripts, upload smth into itself, etc."

My guess is you can switch server off, but you can not unload a mission as you can not unload life as it gives birth to smth This is not a game this is real life simulator.
