11 items
Description
This is a massive infantry based tactical arena where you can practice CQB, & MOUT tactics
solo or in coop, or just to shoot some enemies for fun!

Fight against enemy Ai soldiers from a vanilla or mod faction of your choice that when set to
AUTO will patrol the area and respawn once killed after so much time.
When set to MANUAL, you can spawn as many enemy AI squads as you wish.
An option to garrison the arena with a minimum of 8 and a maximum of 104 soldiers is ideal for CQB or stealth combat. 

Custom plank system
While your on the hunt or are being hunted by the enemy squads, you can access all buildings
either by ladder, platform, plank, staircase, ramp, roof, or walkway.

Optional Tasks
There are optional tasks you can complete, locate and destroy 7 caches, kill an
commander, and locate and eliminate an enemy garrisoned squad that will complete and end the mission.
You play as a Spec Ops soldier, mission is meant to be played in MP lan/Server for respawn and coop.
See features below for further details of the mission.

Cool man, nice!

I've done it in the past, why the lights were removed and only the chem-lights
among other things but try with zombies. Welcome back to Arma!

I got back into Arma. And I decided to turn this into a horror show by setting it to midnight, fighting the FIA, using only flashlights, UGL flares, and chemlights.

Try it! It's fun! Totally!

If somehow they all die, will they respawn? Also when theres
shooting going on around them, normally they would run and lie down, so
a script would be needed to make them be more immersive,
theres really not much more i can add to the mission without killing the performance.

Though i will think about and will test it out to have Ai you can recruit as that was
asked before, it needs some testing to determine what they'll do and how they'll respond.

The problem with ai teammates is 3 things,
1. If you die and respawn you may not have command of them anymore.
2. Theres no guarantee they will follow you and or find their way around and into buildings.
3. If AI team mates die which they will, you'll need to recruit them again.

Adding civilians only takes away from the performance as that is the real concern.
If i were to add civilians and idk how many, you may not see them that much or at all,
once you spawn in 120 enemy soldiers to garrison and then spawn in patrols your
performance would tank.
