Approaching Kavala
I want to echo Outlawz's comments regarding comms. That was a regular mess.
First of all, I will need to fix the server side addon to also account for vehicle radios. So far, the vehicle radios are all left alone, and using the vehicle radio is the default. I'll see what I can do about it, maybe change the default to backpack, or adjust all non-locked vehicles of the player's side(s).
Secondly, though, radio messages must be CLEARLY directed at someone. Half of the time I was left wondering whether it was me or someone else that the order was for. To that extend, the message should ALWAYS start with
"You, this is me. Come in"
or
"You, me."
Here is a video that makes things quite clear:
Finally, I do not think it is a good idea to have the APC on top of a ridgeline with no cover. We had to completely cross over the ridge to see anything, and the result was we were completely exposed. In the future, I would propose to only give a "task" to the APC crew, not a specific point from which to engage.

I don't need luck, I have ammo.
