Arma Orienteering

A simple mission for Arma 3 to practice orienteering and land-nav.

If you wish to use this with a map not already configured here, just add these files to your mission folder (e.g. Orienteering.MyMap).

Custom courses can be predefined using markers in the editor in the following format: course01 to designate the start location, and then course01_1, course01_2, course01_3, etc. to designate each of the checkpoints. Note the leading '0', and make sure to set the alpha of the markers to 0%.

Then update the following code-block in description.ext in order to allow players to chose from your custom courses:

class Course
{
    title = "Course (if not 'Random', this will overwrite some of the above settings)";
    texts[] = {
        "Random",
        "Course #1 (Easy, Short, 6 checkpoints, Rural navigation)",
        "Course #2 (Easy, Short, 8 checkpoints, Urban navigation)",
        "Course #3 (Hard, Far, 5 checkpoints, Wetlands navigation)",
        "Course #4 (Hard, Far, 7 checkpoints, Mountain navigation)"
    };
    values[] = {0,1,2,3,4};
    default = 0;
};
