Resistance Editor Problems?

[Bitty2004]

  Im creating another mission after not touching flashpoint for a while but ive just put resistance on but im having problems with addons in the editor.
The problem is when i make a mission with say a addon like the LSD or anything then later delete it out the editor it seems to think its still there when i load it up the next time. I sent mission to my friend and it said he didnt have addon but i deleted it and resaved before sending it??
Is this problem with editor???
Please All Help appreciated because hours of work are permantly going to the dogs.....
Thanks

Open up your mission file (mission.sqm) with notepad/editor and you'll see something like the following:

Code: [Select]

   addOns[]=
   {
      "ah64",
      "oh58",
      "su25",
      "bis_resistance",
      "bmp2",
      "sebnam_us",
      "sebnam_wp",
      "f4",
      "editorupdate102",
      "sebnam_vc",
      "sebnam_vha",
      "sebnam_obj",
      "sebnam_vh",
      "sebnam_ls",
      "sebnam_s",
      "6G30"
   };
   addOnsAuto[]=
   {
      "sebnam_us",
      "sebnam_vc",
      "sebnam_ls",
      "editorupdate102",
      "sebnam_obj",
      "sebnam_vh",
      "sebnam_vha",
      "6G30",
      "bis_resistance"
   };


That top section tells OpF which addons are needed to open this mission. So if you're really sure what addons are still in that list, but were deleted in the mission, you can delete the entries manually and save it again.

Sometimes its hard to recognize which addon is connected to which entry. For example, if you have placed some resistance houses or bushes, they all will be connected to the "bis_resistance" entry.

You can screw up your mission by deleting entries, so i suggest to make a COPY of the original file FIRST.

Wish you luck.
