Mission framework

Mission framework

Overthrow features a framework for developers to add new missions.

The first thing a custom mission needs is a file in the missions folder. Inside this file should, in minimum, be the mission array required by Overthrow. Let's use HVT as an example:

[
    // Title and description
    [_title,_description],

    // Position for marker
    _markerPos,
    {
        // Setup
        true
    },
    {
        // Failure condition
        false
    },
    {
        // Success condition
        params ["_base","_id"];
        _found = false;
        {
			if((_x select 0) isEqualTo _id) exitWith {_found = true};
		}foreach(OT_NATOhvts);

        !_found
    },
    {
        // On mission completion
    },

    // Additional parameters
    _params
];

Using this as a foundation, it is easy to add new missions to Overthrow. Remember to implement the mission so it is available to players through an NPC.
