Escapists Rereintroduced
Independent successor prototype for Arma Reforger, initially targeting vanilla Everon and up to 12 players. This repository is separate from the existing Escapists workspace. It is not a completed or release-ready replacement.
The primary deliverable is the rewritten base mission; companion migration follows it. See base replacement responsibilities and gaps.
Five independently identified Workbench projects live in addons/core, addons/ai, addons/intel, addons/chat and addons/map. Open addons/core/addon.gproj for the independent base scenario (Missions/ERR_Everon_Base.conf), or addons/chat/addon.gproj for the full companion integration scenario. Core owns essential document recovery and objective markers; companions enhance the base. The only external addon dependency is vanilla Arma Reforger. Required successor source resources are local to this repository; vanilla assets are referenced, not redistributed.
Run the background checks with Python 3 and a C++17 compiler:
python3 tools/check.py
These check the dependency graph, resource identities and isolated production policy functions. They do not replace Enfusion compilation or multiplayer testing.
The development scenario is {C1E20667DCE324ED}Missions/ERR_Everon.conf. Its world is {B6C516F86302C679}Worlds/ERR_Everon.ent. Local Workbench tests now compile the successor and complete a scripted prison → carried documents → interrupted radio defence → physical helicopter occupancy → victory sequence. This exercises mission transitions and native systems; the test teleports the character and helicopter and does not prove a manually playable escape, multiplayer correctness or improved FPS. The enclosure was moved to a surveyed clear site, its gate passes a native passage check, and both victory and helicopter-loss defeat repeat across round restart. Native vehicle-resource errors, manual gameplay validation, full support controllers and multiplayer validation still need work. A separate scripted test now covers actual character death, local spectator activation, all-dead defeat and restart. The Core-only fixture completes two rounds with 38 assertions, including native objectives and radio progress, while all four companions are unloaded.
See architecture, migration status, runtime testing and validation evidence. The acceptance ledger in docs/acceptance.json deliberately keeps unverified requirements pending.
