Mission Planner - It needs an Update
« on: July 08, 2002, 12:55:33 PM »
With the inception of the new level bombing platform in AH, the need for planned missions may become more common. To help with this, some enhancements to the mission planner could be what is needed to make a mission a success.

What maybe nice to see is a text description that can be added to each waypoint or the ability to change the waypoint types, similar to that of AW.

It would be very helpful to be able to specify which waypoint is supposed to be the IP (Initial Point) for bombing runs, and what flight parameters should be used while bombing.

Any chance of getting this type of update?

In addition to that, I think there needs to be a system announcement and maybe something audible too, to announce that there's a mission ready to be joined in the planner.

Something like "SYSTEM: Mission Ready" and an audible beep or something...

Here's a thread (in the proper forum) of a few more for the mission planner.  Think of the "GAME PLAY" forum as a place where HTC goes to implement new ideas.;)

Are you saying that the dweeb on the radio yelling "Misshun UP Join nowe!!!!!!!!!!"  50 times isn't enough to let us know there's a mission?  :D

I still like the thought of a small text editor built into the clipboard. That way you could jot down quick notes before or during the mission. A download to (clipboard) would be a nice feature also.
