Here's one: make navigation and exclusion zones optionally applicable to units versus whole categories like 'aircraft,' etc.

For example, if I use a navigation zone to put a standoff around something that I don't want, say, an MPA to fly into, other air units on the same side can't attack it.

Hello

A request which could be interresting for lua scripting :

when using lua command assign unit to a mission, having some kind of parameter saying that you want the unit as escort for a strike mission. (as you can do it in the mission editor)

It would be very useful to have the option to scrub a No-Navigation Zone once the side is played by a human player. Just like you can do in the Mission Editor.

Thanks!

Im working on a script to generate downed pilots and rescue missions, but i need a function that allows me to know if a pair of coordinates are on land or water, something like:

function isWater(X, Y) return bool

thanks :)

I don't own the game (yet), but was talking about potential scenarios. Someone a thread I was on suggested I post this to a request thread. (I don't know if this is the right place, I'm awful at navigating forums):

Wrecked ships/other units: In the editor, make it possible to designate a unit as 'wrecked'. This would allow for missions in which the player has to find shipwrecks (and possibly discover enemy subs in the process, or for false-positives to be added for sub-hunting missions (ie, a sub could lurk in a ship graveyard).



Added.

All of them would be solid additions to the title, i do like the prospect of dynamic campaigns however.

Hi all first off
and Baloogan videos are amazing

My requests are as follows having only played it once:
(I did a search and I couldn't find it so I'm mentioning it)

Naval mission (ASUW): Anti piracy ship Boarding

+1

I might just call it Strike (Boarding)

(after all, it might be the pirates boarding an innocent merchant!)

I suspect it may be a while before we see this one...I suspect the coding required to make it work will be a major pain in the neck. Yes, they did it in Harpoon, but that does not mean it is easy.

I would love to be able to designate landed aircrafts as strike mission targets. Workaround (launching them, assigning and landing) is very cumbersome when scenario is in advanced stage. Maybe assigning targets for mission from OOB screen?

As an option/alternative, possibility to define targets for strike missions by type/subtype rather then actual units.

a way to make it easier to add to magazine by:

-a way to directly add weapons to the units magazine when selecting the appropriate weapon in the weapons window for that unit (the same window that allows add/remove weapon mount). Maybe create another option at the bottom of that window to "add to magazine".

-similar feature to be used when readying an aircraft to add the displayed load out details to the magazine of the ship/facility that aircraft is located


Until a more sophisticated way of adding magazines is implemented, is there a generic empty magazine database entry that I could add using a config file? If so what is the name/unit id in the database? If there is no such generic empty magazine can I request that this be added to the database?

I like those ideas, especially the second one. Make an Air Intercept mission that targets "Bombers" or that targets "F-15Cs".

How about a LUA command
Like:

EVERY (x) Hours
Then allow it to execute a LUA command.
I am thinking in terms of weather...lest of course weather is about to get a new change... but I have a couple of other ideas as well.

Hello,

Another request that could be interesting :

possibility to create a group of ships directly by LUA script !

Thanks !

I have three requests to my wishlist:

1- One thing that I´d like to be able to do is to edit the AI files. I assume that Command´s AI files are hardcoded and impossible to edit. It would be cool if they were ini files, the sorts of sonalysts´, like for example, Submarines_Defensive.ini, or Submarines_ASuW and so on.

2-To have chained missions assigned to waypoints and/or dependent on conditions, like the picture below:




3- An option to turn on/off COMMs dependency on depth/altitude or other factors, between Sides. For example:

OOB:
Side 1 (Player), Side 2 (AI) and Side 3 (AI); are all Allieds.
Side 1 has 1 SSN
Side 2 has a Land bases (HQ), SAGs, Air Force, Army...
Side 3 has 1 SSBN

COMMS:
Side 1 can only communicate with Side 2 above Shallow. Side 1 can communicate with other Side 1 members freely.
Side 3 can only communicate with Side 2 above Periscope Depth. Side 3 can communicate with other Side 3 members freely.
Side 1 and 3 can trasmit comms when above their respective Comms´ depths, but will only receive when above the their assigned depths, that is, Side 3 is just above the layer, while Side 1 is just above it. At waypoint 3, Side 1 flies to Shallow, so it transmits its actual picture to Side 2 and Side 3. Side 2 receives it immediately while Side 3 will only receive it at its Waypoint 2, when it goes to Periscope.

This way I can set both Side 1 and 3 Doctrines to FREE ASW, instead of TIGHT, to prevent each side from engaging non-friendlies, that is, neutrals. This mechanics, allied to the suggestion #2, would make for a more flexible and complex submarines simulation.

I would like to see a Lua function that enables a sides awareness to be set; it would be useful to improve performance on large scens; e.g. have neighbouring country blind until involved in conflict, at which point Lua event activates "Normal" awareness.

This might be solvable. Check with the Lua guys on this.

Have you tried using lua with any of this?
