Gamemode /Kit questions

[willgar]

Heya,

Read the manual but a few things i am unclear on:

In insurgency (as conventional forces) - when a cache is revealed, a red circle appears which donates a cache. The cache looks like what? could somebody post a screen shoot please.

When a cache is destroyed - does the red ciircle disapear from the map?
What is required to destroy a cache and what effect does the destruction of spawn cars have on these modes/map?

Finally one kit question - which conventional kit has the grapling hook? and how do i access it? Guide says engineers but its not listed on my item list - is this map specific?

I am reading from the guide accessed as a link from this site - is there a more complete guide anywhere else?

Many thanks,

Will

Dun have screen of weapon cache but you should instantly figure out when you see one. Weapon cache is somewhere near those red circles, not always in middle of em and when cache gets destroyed, the circle disappears. Basicly you can destroy caches with anything that does damage, c4, slam, gun, crashing jeep on it, shooting it with APC

Grapling hook is map specific, militia's scout kit has it, brits engineer kit and insurgents civilian kit, it wont show it in the items list but press 9 to use it, once you have thrown it you can pick it up by pressing G and use it again.

A cache is a pile of boxes, some open with grenades inside.
(see 'Project reality essentials.pdf' page 9, image #3)

To destroy a cache just grenade it a few times, C4 it, SLAM it, and generally dammage it with something.

The destruction of spawn cars stops the insurgents from spawning on them, so spreading them out and making it easier to deal with them.

Civilian, scout and combat engineer (some maps) has the grapple. It won't show up on the item list, but you can Press '9' to use it.

Many thanks - it seems that few understand this concept. Have logged on several times to a server called UK teamwork and tactics (i think) and almost every game, there are multiple cache circles displayed but nobody ever seems to blow them up.

It is a dedicated insurgency server from the look of it but maybe i am playing at the wrong times because everybody just seems to be running around aimlessly..

I have tested the destruction of ammo dumps thing and found the red circle does NOT disappear.

There is also a bright red circle and a dimmer red circle, there appears to be no relation as to which circle appears and whether the ammo dump is destroyed or not.

The best way to win is to go all over the city from the start and actively hunt down the ammo dumps, while not giving too much importance to the circles which have been there for a while, but still seaching the area.

Yes, some ppl just don't know what to do.

Also there's a little bug in Insurgency - after destroying ammo dump in the area of circle, the circle should disappear.
Then it's possible, that nobody is searching for it in the area, just because it was already blown.

I suggest you to note the coordinates, where ammo dump's been already destroyed (that's what I do).
