Dogfight training arena
« on: January 04, 2015, 01:44:32 PM »
I'd like to see an arena in which we can practice dogfighting - against a selectable skill level AI pilot.

We all know the trainers are way busy, and not everyone is apt to go to the DA/1 v 1 rooms (me for instance, I rarely go there as I'm nowhere near good enough). This would also be available 24/7.

By selectable level, I'm thinking novice through to ace, selectable at the door as it were.

Not sure how difficult to code this would be, HiTech already has AI pilots (from combat tour), the top guys could use it to try things out, and people like me could use it to get more experience before being hammered in the 1 v 1 rooms.

Thoughts/opinions?

Offline missions allow this if you load up all fighters on the enemy side.

Interesting, thanks for the heads up Bustr. Was under the impression the missions weren't working. I'll dig into this and find out.

Offline missions are hit and miss and better off with earlier versions of AH

Stages missions crash more often than a Bish 38 mission
