dot commands

[chrish483]

i seen the partial list here: http://trainers.hitechcreations.com/

but theres alot more then that like the .s to find all your squad mates thats not on that list and i know theres more online/offline  commands.  so is there a full list somewhere?

[Captfish]

type  ".help" ingame and youll see them 

[chrish483]

Hay thanks Cap

the .help command isnt even on that list, thats how messed up those help pages are     most of the area's are so basic with the help they leave out much needed info, youd think they would update those pages

FYI .sr (squad roster) is in fact on the dot commands page, from when I updated the page to reflect the newer cross arena commands 

[chrish483]

oops it is .sr 
2 things that have been posted before dont know if there even real or not.  off line shooting .target   havent tried the .country1 yet  but im wondering how many otheres there are.

The .target command is available on line. You can use it in the main arenas. When you type .help and bring up the clipboard, the list of commands available to you for the arena should be listed.

.country is also on that page. 

I'll have to add .target sometime, I didn't realize it was missing.

.target Number (number being distance in yards)  Brings up a target due North of you at your altitude.  .target 0 to turn it off.

Many of the commands shown in .help can only be used by a CM or squad CO.  The .help command itself just downloads a text file from the server, hence it does not work offline.

i had hoped that the .target was a form of lead indacator in off line practice shooting at planes from a GV,  didnt know what it was or what it did.

[Captfish]

lead indictor is the "friendly Lock" feature it is toggled on by pressing ctrl+tab, then press tab to select the plane you want too shoot. This feature helped me alot when i was figuring out the lead and ballistics.
I know it works online in the Training arena. It may also be available offline I'm not sure.

Thank you Cap and a LTAR  

i had to learn the hard way but im going to try that and see how affective that is on trainning,  i know were the "gun slingers"  of the old west but looking to improve on an old way

The lead targeting site can be enabled in options>arena setup>environment>arena tables.

I've created a Dot commands page on the wiki.

Several of these need expansion/correction, and there are probably some not listed here.

Anyone with a forum username can edit the Dot commands wiki page (just like most other wiki pages) - if you see something that needs correction/expansion, please do so.

The help and training pages are in the (slow) process of migrating to the wiki; one of the reasons for that is that it's much easier to keep things up to date on the wiki.

The lead targeting site can be enabled in options>arena setup>environment>arena tables>FlightModeFlags.

Doh, just looked in on this thread and noticed the key piece of information missing from that.
