Description
This is not really a mission, just an example showcasing the use of civilian routes and bomb orders. Just sit back and enjoy seeing your planes automatically take off from your airbase and destroy the enemy all by themselves! This example was based on the Hormuz.ini file from the vanilla mission.





I have made a simple how to video about implementing civilian routes and bomb orders:

I have also made available the files I edited on the above video, here:

Cool guide!

Maybe I' ll do a video later with that name. I don't think I can change the name of a mod. Besides, I don' t really show " how", I just show how it looks like.

Also, i made a short guide how to set your minimap default position to the edge of the screen (and formation editor):

Suggestion: Maybe u should change the title of this Scenario to something like "How to setup patrol routes and bomb strikes for AI", so people can find it easier.

Also did u know the CIV routes work for ships too? I think u need a PT harbor for that but i saw it in the Breakthrough mission.

Now we just need to find out how to activate CIV Routes with trigger...
I even asked the devs on their discord, but they didn´t yet reply to me.

Yeah, I tried the Missile option today and it sucks! Better stay with Bomb. I also tried Missile against air targets, but it doesn' t work.
carvajrBR  [author] Nov 25, 2024 @ 1:42pm 
With triggers and these orders it would be possible :-)
carvajrBR  [author] Nov 25, 2024 @ 1:42pm 
Yeah, that would be great. We lack documentation! But it would be very cool to program an enemy in a mission that is able to respond to what you do in a more meaningful way than the AI.

So i typed in "Missile" now instead of "Bomb" and the A-6Es spawn with 2 harpoons and cluster bombs !!!! Then they flew all the 300NM together with an EA-6B to my fleet just to circle it lol. I guess they still wanted to bomb the ships. Would be cool if the devs would release a list with all the possible commands for these triggers... but i guess they are so overloaded with the bug fixing its easier to just wait until the mission editor gets some attention.

So the question is, is there any other AirStrike types i can type in except "Bomb". I tested it again and it seems the Bomb order works. I am searching all the game data for some more info. Apparently "AGM" does not work :/
