Underground Miltary Base at Green Hill - Viral Ground Zero

[malau (DayZ) 36]

It would be cool if there was a devastated Cheyenne Mountain style underground complex at Green Hill, as the place where the virus originated as part of a Bio-Weapons program that went wrong. Either in complete darkness, or just the flickering dimness of red emergency power lights.

Also afew more minor underground military complexes, such as at the main airfield and Stary Sober ?

Also, why not put natural cave systems under alot of the hills ? Some of them leading all the way from one range of hills to the next.

The arma terrain engine will not alow this to be possible, you have to create an object as a mountain and put your underground base in there, and then place the object(mountain) as a seperate object on your terrain.

Some people have tryed to build underground stuff, but never did any of the solution became popular.

But who knows, maybe somebody is actually busy trying to make a new terrain for arma, and maybe he/she is trying to create underground bases.

It would be fun.

Actually, if you instanced the underground caverns in a neutral worldspace and had a "door" or gateway that accessed the space, then it wouldn't need to be a part of the terrain at all except for the entryway. Embedding a bunker-like entrance into the terrain, that when the door is opened it transports the player into a voidspace that's been filled with the "interior" models, is rather easy.

And if it were a double door system, continuity of realism would be maintained since to open the second door to enter the "mine/bunker/cave/etc" the first door automatically closes... you wouldn't be able to see outside from the interior into the world.

I think an old abandon complex is a great idea :D has to have a bazillion zeds in it though so impossible on your own :D and should be the only places to get the higher tier weapons :D
