How to create multiplayer missions
- 1. Run mission editor (missioned.cmd in WarThunderCDK folder).
- 2. Choose Scene view tab and load one of game levels (it is location "britain" by default) where you want to create your mission.
Note: Missions can be technically run on an location, choosing location scene is just a preview.
- 3. Go to tab Mission Editor.
- Choose the side toolbar Mission Settings -> mission
- Choose a name for your mission in name tab
- Choose a name for your mission that will be displayed for other players in locName tab (you can use space there and for example write down [Multiplayer Mission] Test)

- Switch it's type to armada
- Find a dummy unit in Class tab and select it

- The CDK will show you a new window, in this window change the Count of clones: amount to the number that you want for your mission

- 7. Create the same amount of t2_player units by copying t1_player units

- Press Ok
