Title: Mission Objectives Over a Campaign
Post by: eliex on February 21, 2009, 09:35:52 pm

In a series of red-alert missions, the player along with several other fighters have to complete several objectives over the course of several missions without returning to base.
I would like to have the 5 primary objectives listed in every single mission, but as each objective is completed the box will be ticked.

Is there a possible way of doing this?

Creative use of campaign persistent variables sounds like a possibility if it's complex.   If it's a simple linear campaign then having all the objectives in each mission with an or is-previous-event-true might work as well.  Never tried either though.

Hmm, okay I tried them out.
You were right - a good is-previous-event-true works nicely but I had to add in several variables in the case that the events referred to another mission.

Thanks.  :)
