RE: Idea for a new scenario...

<r> Yeah for an example look at how postures and sides are wired up in Operation Lightning Strike under standalone scenarios. I created some subnets for air defenses. The programmers limited this to one or two levels down so keep that in mind.<br/> <br/> There is also a lua function to break its con...

RE: Loss Aversion Among Scenario Designers

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: IainMcNeil<br/> <br/> I tend to agree with Sea Queen. I think having the casualties affect the score would make scenarios more replayable so you can attempt to do better.

Just checked the website and Github and not a heckuva lot.
