This map is smaller than some of the others and probably less dense than Colorado but the sparseness of the aesthetic of it is just so loving top notch I love it.

I've been sitting in the roof for over 20 minutes now so there must be some trigger to getting her to meet with the director on the bridge. When I was here before it just seemed to happen while I was walking around

Do some timers for scripted events start as soon as you load the map or are all actions triggered by your presence

Like if I just stood there like a lump at the red carpet at the start of Paris would Helmut eventually go to the meeting with Dahlia on his own or do I need to see him doing the photo shoot out back to trigger his script

The way I made sure it happened isn't made really obvious unless you play the map a bunch. I'm kinda of the mind about not doing the games thing and spoiling everything you need to do.

I actually didn't know they'd do their meeting without doing this, I don't remember seeing it

It seems like their meeting at the bridge only fires if they meet up at the entrance of the map so you can't just use the mountain start to instantly snipe her without consequence at teh start of the level. That at least makes that assassination more interesting to try and pull off

To trigger it I picked up the cigarettes from the cowboys room and planted them in the dining area the lady goes to. That's helps for a different assassination opportunity as well but it always seemed to get the meeting to start. However, you might want to time her position to give yourself enough time to get to a perch to shoot her from.

Weird, I thought that meeting just happened, but I guess there are some conditions to activate it, because the other day when i was trying to get the directors outfit he just kept walking his loop and going out to the courtyard and waiting for nothing, but the first time I did that level they were just having the meeting when I walked out there without doing anything to start it.

Maybe there's like a random condition that'll trigger it when the map loads? I can't think of any other map that does that though

i just did it two more times without leaving the starting mountain spot. i think they just have to come across each other because the last time i noticed they saw and talked in front of the sushi bar first

Yeah I just did it and it worked that time, I even watched them bump into each other in the hallway nearby and then walk outside to chat. I also found an easy SASO kill on soder so I need to figure out her and I'm the hitman master.

There might be a few skewed or unreachable times on Bangkok and before. The unsilenced sniper rifle used to be able to pierce through like any level geometry so people were pulling off insane times.

Gonna go home and try some escalations in Bangkok so I can get my weight up for the next elusive target. I still don't know of a surreptitious way to erase surveillance footage so I probably need to learn where all the cameras are and memorize how to avoid and/or shoot them

its appropriate that lvl 20 on bangkok unlocks the subsonic pistol, so you can shoot out every camera on earth

It's great because once you hit level 20 the level just blows wide open. This is an awesome run btw
