# How to start Some concepts that will be useful to begin with the script ### What is a mission? A mission is a group of stages. After all stages are finished, the mission is concluded ### What is a stage? A stage is a group of tasks and actions ### What is a task? Tasks are objectives that the players have to complete in order to proceed in the mission. When all mandatory tasks in a stage are completed, the mission starts the next stage Few example of tasks: * **Go to coordinates**: players will have to reach the coordinates to succeed this task * **Deliver vehicle**: player will have to deliver a vehicle in a zone you decide ### What is an action? Actions are what the script does automatically during your mission to make things smooth and exciting, for example: * Spawning entities * Giving items * Alerting police There are 2 types of actions * **Starting actions**: these are things that happens as soon as a new stage starts * **Ending actions**: these are things that happens as soon as a stage ends ## Final suggestion If you want to see how a full mission works, you can import an existing one from **Nexus**, the in-game feature of Missions Creator. After you imported it, try editing it to see how it's done --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
