Due to unfortunate circumstances, ThetaCivilianRescue didn't get its update in the lobby.
Now you can't play with multiple people and possibly more bugs could occur.

So I give you the latest version that works with the latest coop update.

Just watched the replay.

That was a very peculiar situation.
1 of the 8 MML was still doing the original attack move to the edge of the map and therefore still following your units towards your base.
The other 7 were already done and were waiting at the edge of the map to continue the orders.
After X seconds they decide to join the 1 thats attacking you.
When you kill the 1 attacking MML, the others don't have to wait for him anymore and will do the move command to the outside of the map (so it looks like they are retreating from you).

Not sure how to avoid such situations from happening.
I made a github issue and will try to find a way to avoid such things before the next coop update.

I'll try and find it. It was some time ago though.

EDIT: Found it, luckily, it escaped my replay purge. By a hair too, literally the first replays that didn't get deleted.
#5196596, around 19 minutes. It seems they are the ones going around to the right, if you engage them BEFORE they reach the right unexplored side, they will still run there. Maybe they lost radar coverage so they disengaged and continued their patrol?

What?
Now I really want to see a replay.
No idea how patroling MMLs would retreat from ACU.

No I mean when the units attack you from the eastern unexplored part of the map, they sometimes retreat back there while fleeing from your ACU. MMLs mostly.

replay please and time when it happens.
Do you mean when the units leave the cybran base and go into unexplored part of the map, to later pop up from the (bottom) right?

So it's more of a challenge and something different from the rest?
If you don't want to put in effort or can't beat it, just play it on a lower difficulty. ( this is why there isn't only 1 difficulty level )

And if you think it is impossible, then post a replay so we can see what is wrong.
If there is an issue with the mission (bugs, etc), then it will get fixed in the future.

Yes it is. I've done it myself.(i made it and have played it a lot before i could win properly). And have seen Mephi do it aswell.

default=Hard right now. So you should simply lower the difficulty, if you are having some problems.
And when you can comfortably win on medium, you can come back to hard.

I guess Hard is default, since original missions are quite easy for FAF standards.
I tried making this mission a lot harder though so the difficulty isn't comparable to original campaign.

Is it even possible to win this mission on default difficulty in single player?

I put the latest version on a zip file in dropbox.

EDIT: Probably won't help with the big download, considering what speed2 said.
