I was faced with a lot of questions concerning the procedure for the missions and the meaning of the messages, that`s why I just want to explain briefly the procedure and handling on the map, now running on the server:

Every 1,5hours is a mission laoded randomly. This will be shown, by displaying a message like "12th July 1940 (Mission ID X)".
The player will read what is ongoing in the mission, in a HUD message after spawning. I have found no way to modify the time, this text ist displayed, so I have to keep the information short.
The Spawnbriefing will often tell the blue player, to escort bombers from a certain location to another, and will tell the player, when the bomber will reach the first location, at a certain time after beginning of the mission.
Now if you just joined the server, you do not know, when the mission started. Therefore the time INTO the mission will be displayed regularly to inform the player, if he still has the chance to participate in the just ongoing mission or not.

The altitude for intercept or escort will be displayed for now, due to the fact that the time the briefing will be displayed is too short and I had to cut the information to the least necessary, but you should not expect any action below 4000m, rather 6000m.
