Noob questions
Where do you buy boats? Wiki says most jettys but can't see where.


Also, bug reports:

Can't play single player, only hosting multiplayer. Error message is something about a missing = sign in the .pbo.

All backpacks, tool kits and special kit like compasses, GPS, etc, all disappeared on loading persistent save. Both in player inventory and ammo crate.

Also, is it possible to buy kit like wetsuits, rebreathers, etc?

Hi Swoop!

The latest update should have fixed a number of things, including the amount of piers that the boat dealers will spawn at, I can assure you there will be one just north of Balavu. As for the single player issues I and others cannot replicate them but maybe it was fixed in the same update.

There are a few known issues with loading of persistent saves disappearing some items, I promise to give it a good look in the next update :)

Adding wetsuits and rebreathers to the boat dealers is a great idea and I will put that in asap thank you!
I'd also suggest adding stores that sell just clothing as well, for those who want to kit themselves out in something other than paramilitary garb with no armour or carrying capacity.....or those who just want to play dress up.

Sounds like a great idea! We are looking into some features (think: smuggling) to make better use of boats and underwater gear - watch this space!

hi @scratch11 the update that was just pushed includes a "Reset UI" option on the map that you can use after loading your save with the Arma system. I cannot 100% guarantee that everything will work properly though and suggest using the "persistent save" where possible, however.

Just go to your map, game options, persistent save. Then restart your mission and choose load.
yep that works, thanks for all the help just one final question, how do i give weapons to my recruits
Overthrow  [Fejlesztő] 2016. okt. 30., 5:25 
Easy!

1. Select your recruit with his function key (ie F2)
2. Tell him to move next to an ammobox/car/container (middle click on ground)
3. Select him again (F2)
4. Press Y
5. Choose "Open Container"

And he will open the container closest to him and show you the inventory so you can equip him.
Another noob question:

If you've done something like run over 6 gendarmes, steal all their kit and then steal the ammo crate they were guarding......and now your standing is -50 globally......how do you raise your standing up again?

Cos right now, no shop keeper in any town I go to will tell me where the weapons dealer is. All they ever reply is "I don't think I should tell someone like you that"......which I'm assuming is due to my standing.

Hahaha great question Swoop.

Raising standing can be done most easily by killing criminals. You find them in the outskirts of towns with low stability, often in large numbers. They also have camps in the deep jungle that can be much more difficult to find, but the gangs in town will reinforce from those camps which might be a clue, or you can buy a quadcopter at a car dealer to help you find them.

Hope this helps :)

Oh and btw... finding gun dealers can be a lot easier in small towns if you just walk door to door. They wear camo clothes and stand out pretty well ;)
How do you get the main menu window to show? It show up on the begining of the tutorial but cant figure how to reopen it.
@ARMAzac, yep. It's finding em in the big towns that's the problem :).
Having an issue where pressing Y doens't bring up the main menu. Is there a fix? Thanks!
i cant sell guns to traders it only shows "Buy" what to do?
