Map I'm making

[The-O]

(First Post)

Anyways, I'm making a map for 1.46 (Gamespy compatable) and I need some help.

First of all, the idea:

Up to 3 players will start on the intro island part of Malden and must get to a one of a number of different places. I want this single place to be random. I think this can be done by grouping empty markers to an end trigger (Thanks Psych). I assume the same thing can be done for starting points?

Now, I will have 9 players with two blackhawk MG's, which will start on a very small island just to the north of the intro island on Malden. They will fly down to the intro island and hunt the 3 players.

My Troubles:
Getting it so only the resistance (those hunted) see the two points that they are starting from and going to. My friend (whom always says go to OFPEC, first time I have) said this would be difficult. I know how to remove the magazines off of the Resistance so they dont just shoot the hunters. The next thing I need to configure, that I can probably find out, is how to allow the players to choose the time of day in-game so they can try at day and night and such.

Any other problems I'll post here.

Guide to insert Night and Day selection

when you have done your mission do as follows:
Click in the top of your editor, and set the time to 12.00 (daytime)

go to your missionfolder
 C:\Program Files\Codemasters\OperationFlashpoint\
Users\NAME\missions\MissionName.Here

Make a txt file and rename it to description.ext
In it you write:

titleParam2 = "DayTime:";
valuesParam2[] = {-12,-6,0,6};
defValueParam2 = 0;
textsParam2[] = {"Night","Morning","Day","Evening"};

Make a txt file and rename it to init.sqs
In it you write:

SKipTime Param2

don't forget to save your mission again after this.

And that's it
