# BIS_fnc_endMission

*Function · Missions · Arma 3 v0.50*

Locality: effect **local**

## Description

Ends mission with a signature shot or a fade effect, marks it finished for Steam and activates a key in format `activateKey format ["BIS_%1.%2_done", missionName, worldName];`.

> [!IMPORTANT]
> This function should always be used instead of the simple [endMission](../commands/endMission.md)/[failMission](../commands/failMission.md) commands or trigger endings; otherwise, singleplayer scenarios will not properly be marked as played/finished in the game and on Steam!

## Syntax

```sqf
[endName, isVictory, fadeType, playMusic, cancelTasks] call BIS_fnc_endMission
```

**Parameters:**

- `endName (Optional, default "end1")`:
  - [String](../topics/String.md) - end type from `configFile >> "CfgDebriefing"`. Same as with [endMission](../commands/endMission.md) and [failMission](../commands/failMission.md)
  - [Array](../topics/Array.md) - in format [endName, ID], will be composed to "endName_ID" string
- `isVictory`: [Boolean](../topics/Boolean.md) - (Optional, default [true](../commands/true.md)) [true](../commands/true.md) for successful end, false for failed end
- `fadeType`: [Boolean](../topics/Boolean.md) or [Number](../topics/Number.md) - (Optional, default [true](../commands/true.md)) true for signature closing shot. When number, simple fade to black of given duration is used
- `playMusic`: [Boolean](../topics/Boolean.md) - (Optional, default [true](../commands/true.md)) [false](../commands/false.md) to disable automatic music during closing shot
- `cancelTasks`: [Boolean](../topics/Boolean.md) - (Optional, default [false](../commands/false.md)) [true](../commands/true.md) to cancel all pending tasks

**Returns:** [Boolean](../topics/Boolean.md)

To end a multiplayer mission one can use `["end1", true] remoteExecCall ["BIS_fnc_endMission"];` - see also [BIS_fnc_endMissionServer](../functions/BIS_fnc_endMissionServer.md).
