DediServer/MP How to rotate missions.

[ATAG_Bliss]

The objects will remain. You definitely will need some sort of despawn script. Hopefully someone can make one that will destroy all objects. (anyone? )

The f and file command both do the same thing, but the file command seems to break/interrupt a mission so when you do initiate a different mission another mission is loaded instead of just adding on the 1st one.

Original IL-2 was like this as well. But, old IL-2's dedicated server program hasn't been used in a long time with things like FBDj/daemon/server commander.

@ Troll

I agree with ya. Wish I knew how to make it work for the IL2COD.

If objects from the 1st mission remain then I do not understand what you mean by saying that the file command stops the old mission.

The only problem with battle stop/battle start was multiple "NotDestroyedActor" errors iirc. Because of this error Repka uses launcher restart 2 times a day to clear memory from all the objects of the old mission.

Problem is that only Actors are accessible, so they could destroy()ed, but the other static object not. Maybe you can ask the devs? So they can made a function for this in a later update, or they can give you a hint how it works in the current version

The devs said it is planned for the future.
Frankly speaking I think statics should be avoided in online missions because they increase loading time and lag but do not add much to gameplay imho.

AAA, AT guns are excessable via a script. The rest of the scenario should be done with moving objects (actors) which is more fun I think than having static objects like in original IL-2.

What I mean by f and file is that if you have a battle stop on a mission and load another mission via f, the original mission will remain and the new mission will act as a submission. If you use file, the old mission is gone and the new mission will show up. For instance if I battle stop an english channel map and load a volcanic island map through "f" the english channel map will still remain. Using file on a battle stop (ed) mission will have the volcanic island map show up!

Hmm, that stinks. Lets hope so
