it has to be a SEARCH and not a permanent attack on cache marker or a run on possible "unknown cache-places" because every veteran knows all the places..

It's a shame that you can't simulate a civilian population easily. I suppose you could have some none cache objects spawn in the area that cost tickets if BLUFOR kill them, but also cost INS if they attack them. It'd be very unrealistic and a bit of a faff, but it'd mean buildings would have to be searched rather than flattened.

That said, a larger radius would also help big time

the number of unknown caches could be lower in the end of the round ... make just one cache spawn at the time when are just two left.

it's a huge cook block when someone gets the last unknow cache... this could make the end of the battle more fun. for the insurgents and blufor.

some times the guys hunting for unknowns get more than half of the caches... it ruins the fun for everybody .

It's like deleting one of the last ones. The 8th cache was implemented to have an alternate option for Blufor to attack.

In my opinion, if the insurgents have only 2 caches left, defend the last unknown until it's known and have troops close to it.

Just found this program on some random forum, can predict cache location with 20-46% accuracy depending on map. Download this and watch video.

Tried it out yesterday, works! Detailed instructions come with readme file.
