So, I've tried with the tablet, and I've tried with setting a different item, I've tried with the Laser_Designator....but I can't get the commander options to come up.

I think it might be that the faction we are playing as is from the OPTRE mod....is that the issue or could it be something else?

Talk to pilot still works perfectly...the command tablet is not working for me though.

Tested by dropping in a nato guy and giving him the tablet...still nothing. Dropped OPFOR and BLUFOR commanders and objectives, still nothing...which is odd because it works fine on other missions.

Okay, so this is strange. I got in a vehicle and got out and now it works....*shrug*
