My first released mission - 80% done

Any progress?

G'day Pepe,

Thanks for that - sadly, work got crazy, Christmas holidays, and then the Corona Virus blew up!

I've got a bad habit of completing 80% of a mission, and then 'running out of time/energy' - I've done that twice now (I also started an East Timor mission in a Collins class).

I'm working on an FFG mission, which occurs in the week before the US invasion of Grenada. Hopefully, with the 'lockdown' I can get some work done over Easter

Cheers!
Stew

Yeah i've got the same problem so many times. I unfinished dozens (really) of missions. So i recommend focus on not so "climatic" scenarios. I mean making radio messages etc kills my motivations :P

Better is to make at first most important triggers, goals, waypoints, dynamic groups - some kind of skeleton of mission and after that stage add more "immersive" addons like radio messages, familygrams, civilian traffic...

Keep up with good health

I understand what you mean about planning and putting the 'shell' together! I think a pen and paper and Word document is perhaps equally as important at the DW Mission editor itself!
