After Action Report for each Sortie
« on: April 17, 2012, 01:08:54 PM »
I think it would be absolutely fantastic to have an AAR at the end of each flight in each Arena.  Example from "Out of the Sun - Frame 1":

Pand
14:11:09 Departed from Field #122 in a P-51D
14:31:07 Destroyed a fuel bunker at base #08
14:32:01 Destroyed a fuel bunker at base #08
14:32:40 Destroyed a fuel bunker at base #08
14:41:39 Shot down a Ki-84-Ia flown by PilotName.
15:22:24 Arrived Safely at Field #1

It would look very similar to all the logged items that are in the FSO/Event Logs plus changes in score statistics like:
- Arena sortie was flown in.
- Overall Hit % for the sortie.
- Kill Points Awarded.
- Total Objects Destroyed
- Total Aircraft Shot Down
- Perk Points Awarded, etc

Either have it pop up automatically upon getting returned to the tower after a sortie, or have an option to spawn the "Last Flight AAR" from the clipboard menu.  Would also be nice to have a button that would export to a text file in the Aces High folder, similarly to what is done for screenshots.   

I was reading the General forum and came across a post that spawned this expansion on the generic idea: http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,332234.0.html

If you think you are having a 1v1 in the Main Arena, your SA has failed you.

The real problem is anyone should feel like they can come to this forum and make a wish without being treated in a derogatory manner.  The only discussion should be centered around whether it would work, or how it would work and so on always in a respectful manner.

+1 for it to show to oneself special events style damage/kill logs.but only after you die. then a window should pop and show everything.

Formally Merc flying with the 99th Blue Lagoon Bandits
I wish people would use the wish list forum to post their brilliant ideas, and be smart enough to not post all their stupid ones.

But I am under no disillusions of my wish ever being fulfilled.

HUGE +1^e100

Especially having a list of who you shot down and vice versa.

I fly another sim that shows your hits, bullet type, kinetic energy, and gives you a summary of what you hit.

When you light someone up, white text fills the buffer like bombing a town center.

+1! although if it was Pand's AAR, it would include:
14:41:39 Shot down a Ki-84-Ia flown by PilotName.
x6!  :aok

Add it to the scores page and wipe it clean everyday. That way it doesn't load up the text buffer nor does it add more data to the packets. Info is stored server side and accessed through the web page. Type your name, hit a button and it loads your AAR for the day.

and perhaps you could download them so you have the record before it gets "washed" from the net?
