DAY AFTER THE MISSION STARTS! For example, if the mission starting time is<br />
12:00:00/1 (default mission start time), you can set the group to start at<br />

illumination bomb appear in a specified zone at a specified altitude. You can use<br />
this to simulate artillery fired illumination rounds.<br />
LOAD MISSION. This is a very useful action that allows you to load a new<br />
mission in multiplayer, as a result of the rule conditions. As such, you could<br />
have different missions loaded depending on what is happening in the mission.<br />
This can be used for both single player and multiplayer missions. In this way,<br />
