This is a little script to help me practice low level helicopter flights. You can use it to build your own training mission. A demo mission is included.
Usage:
In mission editor:
1. Go to the triggers panel, and create a new "MISSION START" trigger, with only one "DO SCRIPT FILE" action.
2. Click the "OPEN" button just below the "ACTIONS" box, and choose low_level_flight.lua.
3. Put a trigger zone anywhere on the map, set its name to "GOAL", and its radius to about 100 feet.
4. Put your favorite helicopters on the map, set their skill to "Client" or "Player", and their country to any blue one.
In the mission:
1. There should be a message saying "Low Level Flight script loaded."
2. You can then start/stop the training in the communication menu "F10. Other..." -> "Low-Level Flight Training".
3. A big smoke will be shown on top of the landing zone during the training session.
4. After successfully landing in the landing zone, the script will report your total flight time.
Tips:
* Please check out the demo mission (needs the AH-6J mod: https://github.com/tobi-be/DCS-AH-6J)
* Altitude limits are AGL.
* There will be brutal consequence if you fly too high.
* The default altitude limit is 50 feet.
* You can change a unit's alt. limit by appending "_<number>" to its name. For example, a unit named "Ninja_30" will have a limit of 30 feet.
* You can put a helipad or any other object in the center of the landing zone, to make it more obvious.
* In theory, the script can work in multiplayer missions, but I never tested it.
