Placing A Fire Observer

Placing a Fire Observer in VBS3Fires is simple. Add that unit to the scenario using the VBS3 Mission Editor, ensure that the unit is playable, and then enter the URN_Callsign attribute of the unit. This URN_Callsign should match the desired station in the radio net that the user has specified for the mission. When the scenario starts, if a version of VBS3Fires is connected to VBS3, and the VBS3 player has an URN_Callsign that matches one of the radio net entries, VBS3Fires will automatically initialise an observer.When giving a name to an observer, validation takes place if the observer is going to be linked to an observer object. Names that contain an underscore will not be allowed for use. For example an observer name such as “Observer_Sam” will not be a permissible observer name.
