How is this version going?

Mortars are still a little too powerful . . . still destroying objects and BGs with hits on the top of buildings or structures. (i.e. destroying crates inside of warehouses)

Good!
I made targets/AI's indestructible until you get to a certain area then made them destroyable to make mortaring useless

Do have a question

Is the map editor the same for beta 5 and beta 6 ?

Yes the map editor should be the same version.

Nice!
I didn't feel like installing beta 6 on my computer at work and that's the computer I use to make maps but do not play the game.


I guess I have somewhat of an advantage to block mortar attacks since I have been converting all my maps for the PG server. There are 15 or so maps that I use to host on my server. The maps were made for 2 or 3 players and are basically small maps.

I've been dying too often.

Late in the evening on 23rd November I played map "Mission Kandahar" by myself and all went well until the very end when the helicopter came to pick me up and the map would not end. So I went back and killed the one civilian left at the last objective and it told me I had to kill one more to cause the map to end with too many civilians killed. So I journeyed over 1100 meters back to the previous objective where I knew there was one other civilian and killed her to end the map in disgrace. I have no idea why it would not end as all tasks were completed successfully at each of the objectives and the wall went down and the helicopter arrived and I passed over the waypoint near the helicopter several times before entering the helicopter and map still would not end.

On the evening of 24 November I entered map "Operation Bull Hit" where previously I had seen TTTiger playing but he had not finished the map. After TTTiger left I entered the game, I was at the docks just before the tunnel entrance and I noticed the arrow pointing back in the direction of the previous objective 1400+ meters away so I hiked/swam back and found most of the AI were still active there and I promptly died and not wanting to make the hike again, I pushed the map.
