See what I  swiped from the UFO:AI IRC channel:

Code: [Select]

<mattn> i don't have time to put more into campaign.ufo for today [16:06]
<mattn> if someone else will continue... i would be glad :-D
<mattn> there is a TODO comment in campaign.ufo
    which indicates the missions that need more work

Now it's your big chance to contribute! See the wiki page

http://ufo.myexp.de/wiki/index.php/Create_campaign

for how to do it. Submit as patches on the sourceforge. Discuss and seek help here. The file to modify is here

UFO:AI waits for you!

If I change/correct coordinates in campaign.ufo,
how can I trigger a specific mission to see if it works ?

wiki?

http://ufo.myexp.de/wiki/index.php/Adding_mission and
http://ufo.myexp.de/wiki/index.php/Running_the_game
tell how to add a map and how to play a map,
but they don't tell how to force a specified map/mission
to come up next on the worldmap, i.e. to check if it will
be positioned correctly.

So - how can I trigger a specific mission,
without waiting for it to come up randomly ?

currently there is no easy way to do it.

you can put the mission id of the mission you fixed in stage intro set terror_only - then you will have then real soon on your geoscape.

but i will look at this and implement a function to display a given mission on geoscape for debugging purposes. (or maybe someone else will do this??? :-D)

So, how is the work going? Do the campains show as having wrong coordinates in ufoconsole.log? If not, I guess upload a patch and let everybody catch those that still have anythings wrong...

Also, try your hand with the original task --- with the places marked TODO. As a separate patch, or put it in the same...
