Mission Editor : "Time On Target"

[jeanba 1,918]

Hello

 

Can someone explain me as accuratly as possible how tthe "Time On target" works :

 

Is this the time at which the Flight is spawned ?

 

If yes, what is nthe reference :

- When the player flight is scheduled to arrive on target ?

or something else ?

 

Thank you in advance

Never used myself, maybe someone with more experience can tell.

Haven't used it much - but for example when I set up an intercept in SF2V - I had to set the incoming bomber flight that would arrive over their target (my home base ) 5m 49s after starting the mission so the bombers started about 30 miles away.

 

 

It might refer to so many minutes after or before a main flight hits the attack point also.....

The "Time on Target" option only applies for non-player flights. It is used to make another flight reach the target before or after you. Can be used for strike and air-defence suppresion, for instance.

THank you, but I would like to know exactly how the duration is calculated ?

- What is the reference point ?

"Initial point" or "Target point" ?
