- MaximumCharacters
-Sets the maximum number of PCs from any faction that can go on the operation with a value of between 2 and 8. Non supernaturals count for 2/3ds of a supernatural. So 3 non supernaturals could go on an operation with a maximum size of 2. The number of NPC soldiers you can deploy to any given operation will be twice this number.
- Competition
-Set to Open/Restricted/Closed. Open is the default type of operation.
Restricted operations only give half the resources to the winner but no other faction can send a PC force considered more powerful overall than the one sent by the creating faction. This makes it a good choice for operations made by or designed for newer characters or non-combat characters.
Closed operations cannot be seen by or attended by anyone outside of the creating faction but also reward no resources. They can be set with 0 in the day field however. They are well suited to practice or within faction group activities.
- Challenge
-Allows characters to make the rewards of winning an operation higher by making the NPC adversaries more numerous. 0 is the default and is generally recommended. NPC adversaries base number is determined by the overall power of the most powerful attending faction.
- Priority
-This allows you to list players which will be taken over others if more than max is present, you can include yourself on this list and should leave a space between the names of every character on it.
- Speed
-Sets the speed of the battle, speed 1 is the same speed as the game uses by default when engaged in combat in the forest against mobs. Speed 2 is twice as slow, speed 3 is three times as slow and so on. Maximum speed is 6 which makes each combat round a minute and a half long.
- Hour
-The hour of the day in Haven time you want the operation to occur.
- Day
-The number of days from now the operation will occur. This counts down every time the designated hour passes. So if the current time is 10 and you set hour to 11 and day to 1 it will occur tomorrow at 11. But if you set hour to 9 and day to 1 it will occur the day after tomorrow at 9.
