How to write mission briefing?

[Hakuryu]

I know this question has probably been asked here before, but how do I write a mission briefing in the mission editor? The text just continues to go on horizontally until it’s off the text box.

It’s weird because for mission descriptions and messages for victory/defeat, you can type normally with sentences and paragraphs, but to write a mission briefing you need to know how to code? Why is that?

Any help or mission briefing example texts are very helpful. Thank you.

look at the ones in the nato mission folder , u also need to look at the _info.ini files as they impact how and what is shown in the scenario menu in game

see my template mission example

also read this description it explains how steam does stuff.

Briefs text can also use a subset of xaml , u can see examples by looking at games missions . Using xaml you can apply formatting and positioning in briefs for images and text)

this is folder structure i advise to use

YOURMOD\
_info,ini (used to give workshop naming for mod)
picture.jpg (your workshop image file)

YOURMOD\missions\YourMissionFolder\
_info.ini (to give your Scenario menu custom titles, see examples in NATO mission folder)
YourMissionName.ini (any mission files go here)

A brief folder inside this. You can do this for multiple mission briefs for multiple missions ,but give each mission its own brief folder same as game examples.

YOURMOD\missions\YourMissionfolder\YourBreifFolder1
_info.ini (to hide brief folder, see examples in nato mission briefs)
imagefiles.jpg (any image files for your brief if used

use the editor to past your brief text into the mission brief , (its easier to edit the text in something like notepad++ and paste it into the editor)

You can also check the guides menu item above. Someone has posted a lot of details on mission and briefing editing, but I have not tried to use the guides to actually do so yet.
