Uh... I could not imagine that triggers so powerful and "ANY" means "any object" instead of "ANY AI". My fault. Trigger problem has been solved when i put empty veh in trigger zone and it fired.... Sorry. Thnaks.

Hi! Sure. Here my repro mission. How to catch bug:
1 - Check my trigger settings with zone. (Second one is radio alpha for this test)
2 - Run mission. (You should be outside zone during test!)
3 - You see guy in front of you and trigger's hint "Activated" (red in zone)
4 - Kill that guy. Watch hints message! It should change to "Deactivate" for second and "Activated" again.
5 - Next point your cursor on body and 0-0-1 to move body to your(player) pos - nothing happens.
6 - Do same as in 5 on weapon of dead guy and voila - trigger hints "Deactivated"
Anyway, current menu is worst than bad. Any new implementation will be better, because based on early bad experience.
Maybe not round menu, but linear. Main goal of menu is items speed access.
Another good example have multi levels of menu items and use letters for elements access. I.e from basic movement buttons:
menuItem1(w)>>>menuItem1(w)
menuItem2(s)___menuItem2(s)
menuItem3(d)
menuItem4(a)
menuItem5(q)
menuItem6(e)
menuItem1(w)
menuItem2(s)>>>menuItem1(w)
menuItem3(d)___menuItem2(s)
menuItem4(a)___menuItem3(d)
Current menu in Arma 3 is too old, hard to use and crap. I like round menus from modern games. I.e. left4dead: http://www.l4dmaps.com/img/ss/radial-menus-for-team-chat-no-mic-players_49053.jpg
Backpack was for example. Mask and snorkel can be stored to inventory.
I started this ticket, because mask and snorkel can be equipped to head gear and used to swimming at water line without heavy scuba gear. Regular soldier will be able to moving cover with water, but gear for it can be stored to backpack.
Vote up this ticket!
Mldri, maybe he is right. But in my opinion it's very uncomfortable and unpleasant. I think it should be reduced to the prejudice of realism.
Driving bobbing should be removed at all, because camera in Arma represent not head, but eyes. Eyes can hold point of view independent of head movements. Boring bobbing in Arma 2 when drive bike was very painfully and frustrating.
DayZ Standalone have bunnyhop like jump. It will allow you to jump from rock cliff and crush yourself.
Dr_Death, why talking funny things like "Engine rewrite"? You tying to scary author of ticket? ))
I wonder who can be against this feature!? ))
Confusion is often part of war. There are many examples of failures, when friendly forces killed own units even on same vehicles and same uniforms. War simulator should have such feature.
Developers should change it. It's permanent annoying factor, reducing all stealth and sniper operations. Fight against enemy like terminators good, but not when we expect humans. Upvote.
mepwaygame, watch some firefight videos, especially ambushes. Most of trapped soldiers totally disoriented certain time, even when ambushed by large group. This happen when human brain under pressure of stress. Precision of AIs in Arma is still too high. They acts without any mental process and show us behaviour of cyborgs.
Upvote. In addition to this need to reject from instant recognize enemy in vehicles. It's very annoying when take enemy vehicle and enemy instant detects you inside.
Nice feature! Upped
Wheeled should be more effective on roads, sure!
Physics of wheeled vehicles is most unrealistic part of Arma series. If it was good on OFP, but it not suitable for Arma 3. I never like when Hummers in Arma 2 rides across mountains of Takistan at speed near road speed, climbing any slopes with out slipping. Such things we can see in Arma 3 too. It too frustrating when vehicle without specific offroad capabilities appears where i can't be or need much time for it. It's crush tactical expextation when playing. Loog Google for pictures of wheeled army vehs. Most of them stand on road, because it most effective on road. And used to deliver personal to frontline with cannon support.

quote, page 23:
Tactical Wheeled Vehicle (TWV) – Multipurpose or special purpose military wheeled platforms which transport personnel and all classes of supply, to include equipment and dry or liquid cargo. They perform general or specific missions, and support all warfighting functions (Movement and Maneuver, Intelligence, Fires, Sustainment, Command and Control, and Protection). They are specially designed vehicles, or commercial vehicles modified to meet certain military requirements, and are capable of safely operating on primary and secondary roads at highway speeds. They are capable of operating off-road; the degree of off-road mobility varies.
"...and are capable of safely operating on primary and secondary roads at highway speeds. They are capable of operating off-road; the degree of off-road mobility varies"!!!!!! is it ultimate off-road ability???
It's good feelings when I'm right against whole crowd... ))
Wheeled vehicles too ultimate in Arma, especially when offroad. Real life wheeled vehs disigned for light offroad like plains and dirty flat surfaces, it's totally incapable to fast move on rought surfaces like hills and mountains. In Arma wheeled too excellent. This happen due to specific Arma terrain engine (all surfaces very smooth) and heven't any natural irregularities such as cracks, gaps. Wheeled vehicles in Arma equals to tracked in offroad abilities. Arma developers not planning to change surface(terrain) engine, so need to reduce wheeled on offroad and rise on road.

Why game should be limited to factions number?! While we have dynamic cloth and uniform, we can make tons of different factions. It will give more flexibility to mission making.
Ceeeb, how you can add new faction in your mission? Using CONFIG? It's boring and not handy.
Better to create factions on fly.
I think, in addition to fractions, should be able to make any number of SIDES!
it's necessary to have more than 4 factions. What if i want to build MPMission where should be many groups with individual characteristics and change relations between them!?
4 fixed factions is bad heritage of OFP-Arma 2. Old Armas haven't improved uniform\item system like arma 3 and faction tied with uniforms. Now we not needed fixed factions. We can equip any faction with any stuff and setup who is enemy.
It would much greater if we haven't any fixed fatrions and just group any numbers of units in selfmade faction with setup relations with each other factions in array.
I don't speak about any number of player factions...
For my MPMissions i should make addon? Are you kidding?!
Sure, all static weapon animations should be added in future.
What is better to have all stuff in right place or store it in different folders!? Don't be silly.
Huh, it's normal and should be to have all you files in own profile folders. I want it to group all mission folders in profile, but not in different locations. If you have 100 profiles it's your problem.
PS: Ok, it will better if MpMission will be just in "Profiles" folder where "MPMissionsCache", not in each user's profile folder.
What info you want?! I'm as mission maker just tired from surfing in folders to gather all stuff to work. I prefer as programmer to store all content in same project directory. So I ask to group all necessary files together in profile dir.

Or need way to disable HUDs from server.
When I restart mission all were fine. It appear when change resolution ingame.
When I talk about rought terrain, I mean something we can see in Outerra. And I can't wait when Arma will have such terrain detalisation.

All those friends who reject my offers to reduce offroad ability for cans, can't understand that Arma 3 isn't just funny game like shown in video below:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_doiocnApI
but serious realistic game, what should move toward more realistic ones like on video below:

This game shows us how real vehicle behave on true offroad, but not in Arma 3, because there no offroad in Arma 3. Only whole concrete floor...
I totally agree with InstaGoat. He completed my thoughts. I offer community to pay attention on such problem. Behaviour of some vehicles in Arma 3 is incorrect from tactical point of view.
AD2001, look at what InstaGoat writed before: most of surfaces in Arma is concrete surface without any natural obstacles on it. So if developers can't change now this situation due computation power, need to reduce capabilities of vehicles and move it toward real life. I think it's so important, because Arma 3 stand on level of simulation games, but not arcades.
AD2001, it's ok. But if you go downhill with full speed on any type of vehicle, you couldn't find your wheels at bottom of slope. Should be something in Arma to convert current ultimate offroad vehicles to realistic.
C4lv1n, what i should to see in your video?! How APC riding on dry dirt roads and plains? Topic is about true offroad like hills and mountains.
I agree that wheeled APCs is more suitable for surfaces like on your video.

It's boring to comment such uncompetent notes.
See some real military tests on YouTube before posts.
If you think that offroad ability depends on begger vehicle weight, there is nothing to debate.
So I talking not about tracked units(wheeled!!!)
Road was invented because offRoad is much harder to use and all your FUTURE military vehs have not much better offroad ability than modern military vehs.
Offroad is too hard for wheeled vehicles(see videos) even on dirt tracks, especially on rought surfaces like hills and mountain side! It's know all who use military units. So it's very unrealistic and arcade in Arma when wheeled go on full speed throught hilly terrain.
Maybe, you guys stop commenting and go to Army now?! You will know how real things are.

C4lv1n, just go rocky hills and look what on ground. You will see how surface is rought. Many tiny caverns, cracks and rocks, also dramatic elevation changes. Moving on such terrain mostly impossible. But Arma have smooth terrain surface absolutly everywhere, so moving possible even at high speed.
If Arma designers cover terrain with rock and cliffs, which we see on shores, it would be near to real life.
Try to drive at high speed through rocks near Agia-Marina.
Arma 3 need any kind of Ambient Occlusion first. I can't look more at these flat shadows under vehicles.
Back blast not kills everytime, of course, but it cause serious injures near death. See some examples:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCN0y4BHiGs - just drop soldier.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6CanphDUBac - almost killed.

Agree with St. Jimmy.
Authors of Arma 3 attempt to simulate nice gameplay in realistic environment, but not real life behavior. Somebody tryed to create real limbs already, for outstanding realism, i.e. Trespasser game, where all revolutionary ideas were killed by one "real simulated hand". Try to play this game, where you should take and manipulate objects with recreated hand. It was cool when you able to grab rock and throw it or put at any place you want, but impossible to play it long time. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=x-3NnhN7Fis#t=68s
There was much fun, but lack of play.
I don't care much about grenades, how fast or slow. I want throw it easy and to know where it hit ground. Grenades before Arma 3 were horrible, worst i ever saw in games.
Most of players forgot that Arma 3 is GAME and it has gameplay. Games should attracts new players. Grenades were such things which push much players away from Arma-Arma 2
.
There is VBS for those who want f*** with grenades.
I like current FPS like grenades throwing. Too fast, maybe, but in Arma 2 was impossible to use grenades as i want. It was too ugly. Remember Arma is just a game and most of players want to play with fun and joy. But when you can't control some weapons and regular fails from it it isn't funny. I hope that Arma 3 will be in balance of gameplay and simulation because it's just a game. For better realistic warfare simulation there is VBS and mods like ACE, i suppose.
