Does this mean when I re-arm my wipeout/other jets it will come with the laser marker now instead of getting rid of it?

Are you sure you weren't moving it before repairing was 100% complete? This's happened to me once when I moved my jet an inch before repairing was indeed complete.

I could confirm it now. Seems like when you pull your jet straight from the garage and go rearm it, laser marker gets removed and doesn't get added back. If you store your jet and pull it back out, laser marker will be there, but jet ammo will be at 50% for every single weapon type - as it should be.

Nice! !!!!!!

[Fesas River]

These people who do nothing else but sit AFK for money throughout the entire match is becoming a real issue with team balancing.

Currently, It´s 42 against 38 however, maybe only 20 or so people actually are playing the rest are just there to AFK and make money.

 

I would say the majority of the people shown in the screenshot were afking for over an hour.

Some of these people have been AFK since the restart.

I play until the enemy team has air superiority.  Really no point in playing if I can't pull armor, can't restore objectives and the AA we're given can't even shoot down jets.

@bamf @Gnashes when will we see another strife patch?  And will anything be done to jets?

giving money to other players doesnt work @bamf

So i guess malden wasnt addressed in the down time at all then? The op-for spawn in the ocean is still broke you can only buy vehicles cant pull or re-arm, you can still base rape with mortars and tanks, some capture points wont allow you to pull vehicles when you own it, cant re-arm UAV's, blu-for UAV's dont have a runway to take off. All these issue where brought up before it went offline the first time btw.

The mortors are a problem.  However tanks can be taken down easily with AT rockets and Static AT launchers.  Even HE rockets can disable the turret and tracks on a tank.  100% agree on the other problems

• Just added the rearm to the opfor water spawn in the editor.  
• Which specific spawn points will not let you pull vehicles?  
• Which UAVs are not re-arming properly?  I'll add them to the whitelist (should be the same as the Tanoa list, so they should work).
• Not sure what to do about the Blu-For UAV launch point.  It really needs an actual runway.  Perhaps I can build a bridge like I did on Altis and we can just use that/

Why do a stealth patch with a full server?

I haven't patched anything yet.

[Zorrak]

@bamf all drones dont rearm. probably has something to do with that its NPC in the vehicle not actual players, so it doesnt detect it as a rearm?

Not 30 sec before you posted a good chunk of the server got kicked.

If I patch, the server would have to go all the way down.  I'm just sitting in the editor ATM.  I'll post hotfix notes when we actually patch...

• Great
• Its one of the bunker ones from what i remember. It was on a hill. (not that helpul i know but i was there once and left and still getting use to malden.)
• I know blu-for ones dont at all havent bought a op-for one as of yet but i would check both.
• A custom runway would have to be built REALLY well as one little bump and 40k down the drain.

Also i think a consideration to remove rotor lib is needed just due to the fact that trying to combat and sort of lockon can be pretty impossible. Only for Malden not Tanao

Not sure if you've seen this either yet but some good QoL suggestions and fixes here:

 

[bamf]

How does this look for a runway?

It's a bridge (like I did in Pyrgos), except I've fixed the texture flickering.  It's completely flat (since it's done via script).

Knowing arma, I would never trust driving over than in anything, much less a plane.

I want to drive a car on it with full speed and see how far I can come.

I took a plane off and landed there.  It should be fine.  Right?  Heh

Stress Damage isn't enabled on Strife, just for the Taru on life...

Turn it off. Stress damage isnt forced just advanced flight mode.

send me the file Ill test it.
Edit: You may want to make it a little more wide on the sides so people who are aeronautical challenged can land on it

Maybe 3 or 4 in a row side by side and test it to make sure UAV's can actually take off too. Also another problem is vehicles tend not to go back into your garage after restart ie. Helis, tanks, jets etc and just before the 30 min restart warning the server just mass kicks then corrects itself.
