Arma 3
Single player scenarios don't save/No resume button
Seen posts dating back to 2013-2014, but can't find a definite solution except "it's just a workshop/SP mission bug" talks. Is there a fix?

I been on A3 since the beginning and I play SP almost exclusively now and I have almost never had a situation where I could not save or resume a SP mission. There are the usual exceptions like a corrupt or missing mod not allowing you to resume a mission or a server based mission where you are playing SP on a MP platform, but outside of that, have almost never encountered the issue that you speak of.

Currently, I have tried A3-Antistasi Altis and Dynamic Recon Ops map pack. Antistasi works because it has it's own saving/loading system which I found just recently. However dynamic recon ops resume option works only when transferring copied old save file into the save folder, replacing the new save after starting scenario again and leaving it.

If anyone has similar issues and (possibly) fixes for them, please share them in this thread.
Wait, you are talking about "problems" with Dynamic Recon Ops, that's not a single player scenario, it's a mission generator.

It's sp/coop mission generator, which is located in scenarios section? I understood it as not just mission generator, but also as sp scenario, mb I got it wrong (since it doesn't have a story?), but it doesn't really matter.

The method I described and the issue it resolves works not only for Dynamic ops, but also for "HUNTER SIX - Special Operations Unit" with Data Type: Scenario, Mod Type: Campaign, Scenario Gameplay: Singleplayer, or it doesn't qualify for "single player scenario" also?

Anyway, for some reason it does work for DO. In the future I am planning on playing/creating SP in arma 3 and if someone has any experience such as this, I wanna read about it.

If something works, or not, is up to the missions maker, it's not some "bug" with the game that needs a "fix".

Sometimes weird things can happen, and something goes wrong with a save file, but most often, if something goes wrong, it's something the mission maker did wrong.

False, in the case I described, it is a bug
this IS a bug. but save&exit the session before you quit the whole game prevent this from happening i think.(i encountered this many times before)
