I was thinking a little more about the weather issue I mentioned in
https://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,395096.0.html (https://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,395096.0.html)
and I realized what might be a better solution is to be able to add time specified Dot Command "Events" to the Staged Mission definition.
That would open up a limitless number of possibilities for control.
* I could load up a desired weather file at the start of mission.
* I could set the time of day.
* could change the weather mid mission. Suppose the weather changed during the time covered by a warp waypoint.
* I could initialize thing to be damaged already at the start of a mission.
* I could clear damage at the beginning of a mission. Supposed I am playing a sequential series of missions and a previous mission was an air raid of my base. The current mission may have meant to be days later, but when I spawn, things are still smoking and on fire from the previous mission I had played. I may want to clear damage at the start of the next mission.
The possibilities are almost endless.
I tried to do this with the "Text Event", but it was just text, it didn't execute the Dot Command I had entered.
Thanks in advance.

Sorry, referring to Offline Staged Missions.
The AI Staged Mission stuff.
