Title: Scripted Missions in Custom Arenas
Post by: bbosen on August 27, 2011, 09:27:57 AM
I hope someday, when the Custom Arenas settle down, the Custom Arena hoster will be able to activate a previously written "Offline Mission", activating computer-generated "bot" aircraft that others in the Custom Arena could see (and shoot) like in Aces High V2.12.4. (Back in the old H2H days, this allowed large-scale, cooperative combat with and/or against bots, which the live humans could join, oppose, or ignore.)

Awhile back Hitech said this was part of the scope of the new H2H so hopefully this will come eventually.

WONDERFUL! I'm SURE this will bring in some new, paying customers.

Here is the quote. No way of knowing if this is still planned or when it might come to pass.

What we are working on is the replacement of the H2H. This basically will let anyone bring up an arena, the sizes have yet to be determined. Including adding their own terrains to the system with out HTC's intervention.

Part of the scope of this project is also including the AI mission system into the arena's configuration.
