Converting Existing Missions



If you wish to convert an existing mission to use the HS system, follow these steps (make sure you read "Setting it Up" first):


1) Copy the contents of the _template folder into your mission folder


Copy everything from the hs_template folder into your mission folder, EXCEPT for the mission.sqm. If you already have a description.ext, then just copy the lines from the template's description.ext into your's. If you already have an init.sqs, then copy the contents of the template's init.sqs to the TOP of your init.sqs.


2) Merge the template mission into your mission


The units in the template will also be merged. Delete them.


3) Set up the groups that will become the player's 'squad'


Break up the units in the player's squad into 3 groups (with one extra, 1-man group if you want an RTO). Name these squads and set them up in hs_init.sqs.


3) Set up the trigger that will catch all enemy units


Adjust the trigger merged from the template to the right side, just like before.


4) Edit the "hs_init.sqs" options


Change all the appropriate options, just like before
