    Hello Devs! first of all, congrats on an amazing mod! :-)

    1. Is its possible to make it so that player data gets wiped on faction change, i e from opfor to civilian?
    2. is it possible to exclude civilians from using player resupply and combat support?
    3. is it possible for both opfor and blufor to have player resupply and combat support enabled, and if so, how?
    4. Could you guys add a tutorial video for the multispawn module, as i can't seem to get it working?

    Sorry for the barrage of questions! :-)

    I can answer 2 and 3:

    is it possible to exclude civilians from using player resupply and combat support?

    Only by not making the item required to activate those system available to civilians.

    is it possible for both opfor and blufor to have player resupply and combat support enabled, and if so, how?

    Yep if both factions have OPCOM and mil_logistics they will be able to request support from their faction command. Combat support should just work, just use the faction specific vehicles you want and they should only appear on the BLUFOR or OPFOR sides CS tablet.

    Thanks for the quick reply! :-)
    If i give both factions CAS and ARTY, then at random only one of each works for each side, and resupply doesn't work at all if all three sides have playable units, any ideas? and just to rule out wrong unit types assigned to each sides cad and arty, thats been checked, and double checked, so thats not the problem. also both sides can see all the assigned CAS units, but can't interact with them...
    Could it be a JIP issue, because if the mission is run as a dedicated server, then the first time a player joins, he will get both combat support and player resupply menu entrée twice, until he dies and respawns. after that the menu is fixed and both entries only show up once...
    One final question for now, is it possible for players to request a mission from opcom?

    With regards to 1. It's not a bad idea. Please can you submit a ticket on our issue tracker with the exact feature you would like? Do you want it to wipe on different faction? Different class? If someone rejoins after with the same class as before do you expect their Loadout and state to be returned? Please add as much detail as possible :)
