ED [DCS USER MANUAL]
Value – sets the parameter setting, which will satisfy the condition to execute
the trigger. Note, depending on the parameter, the value may be a numerical or
alphabetical string.
COCKPIT PARAM IN RANGE (requires console) – checks for the set cockpit
parameter to be within the set value range. This trigger evaluates a number of speciallydesigned
cockpit parameter trackers (such as TGP zoom level, steerpoint name, etc.).
Param (parameter) – sets the name of the parameter to check. To obtain a
parameter name, run a mission with the desired parameter in effect, open the
game console and execute the “console.out(list_cockpit_params())” command.
The game console can be accessed by pressing the “`” command in-game. The
console.out(list_cockpit_params()) console command will display the current
states of all cockpit parameters.
MIN – sets the minimum value of the set parameter, which will satisfy the
condition to execute the trigger. Valid value range is -1^9 to 1^9.
MAX – sets the maximum value of the set parameter, which will satisfy the
condition to execute the trigger. Valid value range is -1^9 to 1^9.
COCKPIT PARAM IS EQUAL TO ANOTHER – checks for the set parameter value to
be identical to another parameter’s value. This trigger can be used in conjunction with
the COCKPIT PARAM SAVE AS action in order to compare parameter values at different
points in the mission.
Param (parameter) – sets the name of the first parameters to evaluate. To
obtain a parameter name, run a mission with the desired parameter in effect,
open the game console and execute the “console.out(list_cockpit_params())”
command. The game console can be accessed by pressing the “`” command ingame.
The console.out(list_cockpit_params()) console command will display the
current states of all cockpit parameters.
Param (parameter) – sets the name of the second parameter to evaluate.
Note, one of the two parameter variables may be a custom parameter name saved using
the COCKPIT PARAM SAVE AS action.
ACTIONS
START WAIT USER RESPONSE – start listening for input of the SPACE BAR key to set
the specified flag to on. This can be a convenient way to progress a training mission
based on the player’s signal. Using this trigger will prevent an input command normally
mapped to the Space Bar key (usually fire gun).
Flag – sets the flag number to set to on when the SPACE BAR key is pressed
while the action is in effect.
STOP WAIT USER RESPONSE – stop listening for input of the SPACE BAR key. This
trigger disables the START WAIT USER RESPONSE action.
COCKPIT HIGHLIGHT ELEMENT – enables a cockpit highlight of the specified cockpit
control (switch, button, knob, etc.).
