Well, thanks for mentioning and not forgetting about me. I did more or less a silent quitting. I also stopped completely with gaming.
I dont regret being a part of this community and sort of happy i saved it from completely disappearing completely, it was really close of being gone completely and was in a really bad shape back then. 
 
Im married now, have 2 kids young kids, retired from work on my 40th. Spending time on/with my family and new hobbies like travelling, skydiving and racing. Voulunteer firefighter, got CLS training in the MARCH and PAWS protocol and got certified for it, currently busy with many small projects but mostly spending time with my wonderfull wife and kids... really happy now.
 
The only person im still in contact with is Mark T. 
 
Wish you all the best here and ... dont forget to take a walk now and then... some pullups can do good aswell.

So,
 
Its been quite a time since ive left. And still, after all the time, nobody contacted me about the steamgroup of over 1300 members.
Finally i made the step to Lindi to ask him about the who and what to do, since his advise is to hand it over to Ryko, but dear Ryko is not in the group,...so its not possible to make him the owner.
Since i feel no responsibility for the steamgroup of this community anymore im at the point of promoting someone random or get rid of it in any other way.
 
It is the account i have retrieved from Baconmop at the time. This costed me alot of time and something else, so it is a pitty to dump this group, on the other hand, if no one values this group anymore i dont see it having a future. But its up to you, so tell me (not on this platform) what to do, asap please. Im in TS this evening for about a hour.
 
Best regard,

PS: my email is still the same.

Current numbers for jets and choppers are:
<= 20 players no jets, no choppers
> 20 && <= 40 players no choppers, 1/3 chance of a jet
> 40 && <= 50 players 1 chopper, 2/3 chance of a jet
> 50 2 choppers, 1 jet
Note that these are the numbers for the AOs themselves spawning stuff.  This does not include the jet that will be spawned by the HQ or RT.  And both spawn a jet very shortly after an AO spawns with either of them.  The chances of either an HQ or an RT spawning are 1/2.
 
As for which helis spawn:
1/10 chance for a kajman
1/10 chance for a xi'an
4/10 chance for an orca
4/10 chance for a hellcat
 
And for the jets:
3/9 chance for a Neophron (1/3 cluster, 2/3 cas variant)
3/9 chance for a Shikra (1/3 default loadout, 1/3 cluster, 1/3 stealth)
2/9 chance for a Gryphon (1/2 default loadout, 1/3 cluster)
1/9 chance for a buzzard (always cas loadout)
 
 
It is impossible for the script that ensures that 2 of the same side missions don't spawn in a row to bug out if side missions are still spawning because it's the script that spawns the side missions that does this check.  What can happen is that by pure luck it keeps switching between secure intel unit and secure intel vehicle as these are 2 separate missions.  There are currently 13 side missions the script can chose from, so for a secure intel mission to spawn 3 times in a row that'd give a chance of 1/13 * 1/12 * 1/12 or 1 in 1 872.  Which is actually not that small of a chance (if I can still do chance calculations, which might not be the case), I'll ask Xwatt if I can make it that the side mission cannot be the same as the previous 2 instead of just the previous one. 
 

The same side mission cannot spawn twice in a row, I guess I could increase that to the last 2. 
The amount of enemy air threats has not changed in at leats 20 versions, what has changed is that enemy jet will prioritize vehicles over infantry to attack.  Enemy helis won't.
Yes, it's been acting up a bit, I've already released several versions that only tried fixing that. I'm still working on it.

i disagree on changing the mission the suggest way by editing officer values (gear/stamina) and here s why :
 
SECURE INTEL is supposed to be tricky and is the Queen of side missions since adding it to the mission list.
It is expected to divide the weak rambos from the players cooperating or having a decent plan to this mission by adding the "capture" factor of the officer.
As,its eZ to do a vehicle intel,but the  officer intel forces you to be on your toe´s all the time.
I had several (100s) of officer pursuits,either by car or on foot - and as long as you keep in the 500m range of the escaping officer its no issue.
 
That being said,its funny you mention you on a 3 year long intifada against that mission.
And you havnt figured out in all that time that if YOU drop parts of gear you r wearing/carrying you also run FASTER than the officer or minimum equally fast and then its just predicting his nxt movements to either overtake him with your car and block his path,then get out and make him surrender or you just run in 5m range near him and hit the GET INTEL option on the scrollwheel and VOILA .... mission done.
Astonishing.
 
How about you get off your high horse and ASK someone (me) for information before ranting on the forum about it in a useless way and trying to alter the mission setup.
Hmmmm ?
 
 
 
 
I do agree that the mission fails pretty lightly if the officer gets alerted to early and the escape cars run him over in maneuvering.
But thats only a 30% chance that happens and mostly only if you engage from to far to early.
Also,failure is part of the game and exitement.
 
Still,dont you nubcake my beloved intel mission to cater to weaklings.
Right?
Right!
Sincerly yours 😘

It's been a bit quiet in certain areas, depends what you want to come back here for.
 
If you're interested in EU1 then that is obviously still around, some old faces may still be around too. Depends if you're playing for community or just playing there.
 
EU2 is now doing organised gamenights every weekend and I believe sometimes in the week, if you're interested in some lightly modded (pretty much just TFAR) gameplay with a similar mindset to EU3 (organised, communication teamwork) then you might wanna check that out.
 
EU3/AWE is down, no idea when it will be ready. Perhaps, next year if we're lucky but again, it's very grey on grey.
 
EU6/MSO is around, we do heavily communication orrientated, challenging gameplay. It's had a break currently just due to the fact I'm in a new job and a bit spent on more heavy strain gaming.
 
Discord exists, so if you'd like to use that then it's there.
 
Teamspeak still has its regulars come in, as always me and the lads are down in the Navigation Deck and you'll find some others groups in and around the ship.
 
I think all AW servers have moved to ArmA 3 Workshop now, Repo is pretty outdated and I rarely see it being used anymore on ArmA period.
 
I believe you were more of an AWE regular so it's easy to understand why you thought the server was on its last legs, but there's still a home for everyone here and AWE is just having a much needed renovation.
 
Pop in whenever you want obviously, but it does depend on what you're looking for.

I think is not about the playerbase feminin feelings, I would say it is about playing with all the options a couple of mods can do towards a better/cooler Arma/Ahoyworld experience.
 
New weapons, vehicles, aircrafts and not repeating the ‘go to mission’ factor since this mods change the escenarios, without stepping out of serious gaming and realism of course. Cheers guys !

Wanted to say hi and share with you all at least the first 5 mints of this clip remembering good old days in EU3 with Luetin09 and all the guys and the maps and the mods and the uniforms and the intensity and interest the community had then. And don’t tell me it was too loaded or frame drop because of the lots of mods used since nowadays it’s the same with those boring maps and factions we are playing lately. (Had to say it, it’s how I feel).
 
My point is that we need to get back to it again and have fun in arma in ahoyworld modded, let’s go guys !!!
 
Enjoy: 
 
 
 
 
 

Agree with you Nutek, those were the good days. I remember this mission and it was fun indeed. The only negative is the time it takes to get it running, once the show gets on the road, its a very nice experience you can only find in arma (almost only in arma). 

Nice avatar, lol'd.

Hello [SPMC] ANCO. Monkey,
 
You were banned in december 2016, you and a about seven other members for recruiting other players to your community.
It has been more then two years since the ban. Just behave and play by the rules.
 
 
Please read The Rules of Ahoyworld.
 
Enjoy the Ahoyworld community.
 
Ban appeal is successful.

we,the no_life hard workin rude addicted to drugs and hookers 18/5playing sexxy role models,welcome the effort taken and are looking forward to give this a go and see how it turns out.
 
I,personally also want to highlight the most contributing post in this topic done by @ansin11 as he s given this one a actual thougt and a proper read and pointed a solution.
👏
 

I really like the idea to spawn ground vehicle rewards at the side mission first and then, after ten minutes or so, move them to base if nobody took them. Sounds like a simple yet effective improvement to me.
Sure, it doesn't cover every eventuality, but as this thread shows it's safe to say that it's practically impossible to cover every eventuality.

judging by the resonses in this topic ima just rely on killing the next offender and receive my final ban.
Have a nice day.

In-game name when banned: zerocool
What message displays when you attempt to connect? horrible flying/tk
Why do you think you were banned? i got banned beacause was my first days in arma and i dint know how to pilot
Why (in your personal opinion) should your ban be lifted? cause i learned how to play
Which administrator banned you (if known): 
When were you banned: about 1 or 2 years ago

@TheScar tell me, did you contact a admin regarding this issue, seems quite easy if you report it to a admin something can be done. Just tell them the guy/girl whos stealing and keep your cool.

At first Scar, stop quoting sections of my text instead of commenting on the whole part. Disecting part by part is what trolls, autists and kids do. Just respond on the whole text instead of (possibly) scrapping the nuance by looking at what i said word by word.
There is a rule that probably covers this situation in your favour as i see it:
 
"We expect everyone to maintain this environment and will take action against those who jeopardise that community spirit. Admins reserve the right to warn/kick/ban users whose behaviour is deemed disruptive or aggressive and not conducive to a place of tolerance/friendship/comradery. Whether the behaviour is disruptive or not will be determined on a case-by-case basis on the judgment of the admin/admins present."

willing to bet money on ...

Give it some time Loupgarou, im sure @Solex is working on it, or maybe he is on holiday...patience is a skill.

Glad you enjoy playing here, every little helps and thanks. 😉

hey i know its not much but i thought since i like playing on the server and thought id like to keep it running id
donate some money its one £1.50 but its all i have at the minute 

I respect your opinion, I just wanted to be clear about the facts

Poked my head into I&A EU1 today (as "William" - I may need to find a more distinctive name!). Never played Arma 3 MP (other than Apex with 1 other person) so wasn't really set up to communicate particularly well, so I ducked out before I could make a mess of things! But in that short time I was pretty impressed with the setup, and then the gameplay rules (on this site) made sense to me as well, so I registered an account!
 
Hope to be back on in some sort of useful capacity soon. Best if you leave me a total grunt slot for now, I'm still learning the ropes!

Would like to take a shit on it to be honest.
