CMANO - Making Tactical Decision Aids - The Lua Gag Reel Episode 2
This is a continuation from my previous post. Let's take a look at the triggers that move my tactical decision aid scenario.
Access to the triggers is performed from the main menu. Editor - Event Editor - Triggers. The window that pops out (see screenshot above) allows the edition and creation of new triggers.
I don't know if you remember my previous blog entry, but the outline of my scenario was as shown below. The triggers that put the events in motion are highlighted green.
1. The scenario starts. In the editor, I created an event named Scenario Start Event. I now added a trigger named Scenario is Loaded Trigger.

2. A DPRK sub is placed 50 miles from the US ship and given a patrol area delineated by the reference points above
3. If the US warship remains undetected and reaches an escape area south of the DPRK patrol's area. In the...

Both 100 years old and still full of fire
The woman who flew a thousand planes
Mary Ellis delivered Spitfires and bombers to the front line during World War Two. Mary is one of the last surviving pilots of the Air Transport Auxiliary (ATA), she was honoured at a surprise party to celebrate her 100th birthday at Sandown Airport, Isle of Wight, on 2nd February 2017. She recalled flying "about 1,000 aeroplanes" during the war, including some 400 Spitfires and 47 Wellington bombers, which she flew solo.

The man who is older than the RAF
Franciszek Kornicki, the Polish pilot who took command of 308 Squadron during the Second World War was, on 26th September 2017, named the winner of an RAF Museum poll to decide 'The People's Spitfire Pilot'. Kornicki celebrated his 100th Birthday earlier this year, just as the RAF prepares to celebrate theirs in 2018.
