Go look in the Wiki under the FRED topic...
Oh,
:welcome:
Welcome to HLP. There are exits to the left and rear, but do not try to use them. One has a black hole in it and the other leads to a political discussion. If you are looking for a flamethrower, you'll find one under your seat. Unfortunately, we're out of napalm, so you'll have to bludgeon people to death with them.

In the event of serious conflict, there are plasma rifles in the forward locker, though these can only be opened by an Admin, :v: , God, or Hyperintelligent shade of the color Blue. If, for whatever reason, you find yourself crawling around in the ductwork, there's a better than average chance you'll encounter a Shivan. They're easy to spot with the five legs and all. If you're lucky, it's just Carl, who responds well to food rewards. If not, then at least you die quickly. The entrance to the main control room is guarded by subspace claymore mines.

Do not mention efF esS thr33.

Karajorma's FAQ, the FS Wiki and the HLP search function are you best friends. Have a pleasant stay.

jna99, you've just been officially welcomed to HLP :D

Basically you use the campaign editor to string the missions together.

Each mission should have a trigger (like all the primary goals achieved etc) that allows you to proceed to the next one and a repeat link which makes you play the mission again if you haven't done enough to progress.

The FRED help has a whole explanation on how to use the Campaign editor but it's pretty simple. Make sure you remember to assign ships and weapons in the editor. I've lost count of the number of times I've made a new campaign file, gone to play it and found I have no weapons because although I assigned them in the mission I forgot to allow them for the campaign too.

Me. Too cliche. If I make another campaign after bhx it'll be Ranger or League based.
Be warned: This site's admins stole 100s of hours of my work. They will do it to you.
