Wrench need a simple mission

I've run into an FM issue and need your help. I'm trying to think of a work around that does the least amount of damage to accuracy which requires a lot of inflight testing, which takes forever.

 

I need a simple CAP takeoff and land mission (using the default SG desert terrain) with 4 aircraft. Just takeoff, fly the pattern 1000ft AGL and land. No bad guys. If you get a chance to work it into your schedule it would help a lot. What I'm watching is the AI's takeoff and landing, especially #3 and 4.

Try the attached test mission - for Strike Fighters Gold / SFP1. (Tested with SFG + Oct 2008 patch)

 

4 x F-4C departing D-6 airbase, they take off, circuit, then land.

 

Simply hit Autopilot once the mission loads, then sit back and watch the show.

Thank you comprnt!!!! (btw, he IS the master of single missions!!!)

 

I TOTALLY suck at mission building in the 3W game (unlike what I was able to do in the past with FA). If you've seen my 1 or 2 measly efforts....you know why!

Thanks comrpnt!!!!!! That worked. Is there any way to get them to only fly the pattern and not do a full approach?

Not quite sure what you mean. If you want them to endlessly circuit the base, then simply comment out the LAND_LINEUP and LAND_TOUCHDOWN definitions, like this:

 

//									  On final approach
//Waypoint[04].Command=LAND_LINEUP
//Waypoint[04].Position=301000,590000,1000
//Waypoint[04].Size=150
//Waypoint[04].Speed=160
//									  Welcome home!
//Waypoint[05].Command=LAND_TOUCHDOWN
//Waypoint[05].Position=301000,600050,0
//Waypoint[05].Size=1
//Waypoint[05].Speed=10

 

They'll reach the APPROACH waypoint and simply circuit it from there on.

 

Hope this helps, regards, comrpnt.
