Title: "dot" commands
Post by: ridley1 on February 11, 2006, 03:57:53 PM
Is there a complete listing of dot commands?  The help file seems to be missing some.


I'l like to add one, though.....

On a side note, you can extend the .fly command with numbers to specify the runway you spawn on:

.fly 0 = H
.fly 1 = SW
.fly 2 = NE
.fly 3 = W
.fly 4 = E
.fly 5 = SE
.fly 6 = NW


Any command number thats not "valid" spawns you in Hangar, for ex .fly 3 on a small airfield.

Wife ack & frustration overload both use the same command Alt + F4  and it works every time.

.ef  (end flight)
.country 1,2,3 changes country (must be in tower)
.move # jumps to that field #.   (must be in tower)  
.speed xxx = mph to climb at     (In flight only, same for salvo, delay)
.plane # selects plane from list. (if you want list you have to dig for it)
.fly puts selected plane on runway.
.salvo x = # of bombs to drop with single keypress
.delay 0.x time delay between bombs. default is 0.05
fuel FuelLoadIndex    (The fuel load index must be from 0 to 3.)
join gameid (jump into XXXXXX's plane as gunner/observer)
.showjoin 0/1 want join attempts to show in popup window? or in text?
.accept GameID    (Accepting a .join)
.decline GameID    (Declining a .join)


.radio # y where X = radio number, ie 1 -5, and Y equals channel to tune.
example  .radio 1 200 tunes radio 1 to the open channel.
               .radio 2 2 tunes radio 2 to country channel.
               .radio 5 gameid would tune your voice to private to a player.

.wingman Ghosth    (Highlights your wingman

The downloadable help file has one page just for dot commands.
Any questions just yell.
