STANDALONE MISSION - Short Escape
Now that there were words about standalone missions, I was inspired.

I spent three complete hours working on this mission. I am confident I could produce something good in such a short time. The mission's structure is not complicated.

Feedback is welcome.

[EDIT]Mission updated, following pyro-maniac's suggestions.

Before I forget: I did not give it to anyone to grammar check it. You can comment on that, if it's constructive, with examples.

Straight forward escort the partially damaged cap ship mission.

I enjoyed it, but the enemy seemed to jump in a bit too close to the damaged ship, but that is just an opinion not a knock.

 :cool:

OK: I liked the mission - nice and simple, nothing too flashy, just get on with it. Nicely done. :yes: The only thing I picked up on was the timing and positioning of the attacks. Perhaps have the delays between waves a bit longer, but make the waves more powerful? If anything, the Nephilim seemed to be too close to launch their bombs. Make them arrive further away, have 6 per wing, and have slightly longer gaps between the waves. :)

On to the corrections - I've gone over the messages and brief/debrief quickly, and I've corrected and/or re-written them to what I think is better. I've tried to keep them similar, but some of your structures were a bit awkward so I rearranged them. Bear in mind that these are only my opinions, so ignore anything you don't like. Hope I've been of some help. :)

Thanks for the help, the delays between the waves are usually between 5 seconds and 80-100 seconds, so I don't think making the delay higher is necessary.

I like it! But I have a question, how do I upload my own mission so people can download it?

You need an FTP(File Transfer Protocol) server. I suggest you go to: www.game-warden.com/forum and make a request for an FTP server.

To use an FTP server, you must have an FTP-controlling programme, I have SmartFTP(Search in Google and you will find it, it's free to download). I am pretty sure that is a nice programme, easy to learn.

Or an easier way is to sign up for some free webspace (eg freewebs.com or geocities or something), upload the mission file there and then link to it. :)
