Multiplayer movies covers the launch file setting that turns movies on outside a campaign.

Caveats
  • The movie replaces the radar pane, not the tactical view. The pane opens for it even when the player has no working radar.
  • The pane switches to the movie only while EVA is silent. EVA then announces an incoming transmission, and the movie starts once she has finished.
  • While movies play, music, sound effects and speech are at half volume. Full volume returns when the last queued movie ends.
  • A movie started while another is playing waits its turn, and movies play in the order they were started. When the last one ends, the pane returns to the radar, including any radar gained or lost in the meantime.
  • Outside a campaign, the movie plays only when the launch file asks for movies. Otherwise a skirmish or multiplayer game skips it. A movie whose file is missing is skipped too.
