I wrote a small c# script to display an IL2-style 'speed bar' in CoD. It's not great, but was fun to do. It's in this thread here:

Since a few google searches led me to the people helping to explore scripting here, it seems proper to post back in-case it helps others.

Code:

using System;

using maddox.game;

using maddox.game.world;

using maddox.GP;

using System.Collections.Generic;





public class Mission : AMission

{

    private double nextMsgTime = 0;

                        

    public override void OnTickGame()

    {

        {

            base.OnTickGame();

            

            if (Time.current() > nextMsgTime)

            {

                nextMsgTime = Time.current() + 3.0; // 3 ish seconds to next message

                

                // Leave this in if you want to test a timer

                //GamePlay.gpHUDLogCenter("Time elapsed (in seconds) = " + Time.current() + 

                //    ", next message will be at " + nextMsgTime);

                

                if (GamePlay.gpPlayer() != null) // check if we have a player.

                {

                    if (GamePlay.gpPlayer().Place() != null)

                    {

                        Player me = GamePlay.gpPlayer();

                        Player[] all = { me };



                        AiActor where = me.Place();

                        Point3d pos = me.Place().Pos();

                        

                        double height = ((pos.z + 62.5) / 306.5) * 1000;



                        AiAircraft aircraft = (GamePlay.gpPlayer().Place() as AiAircraft);

                        double ias = aircraft.getParameter(part.ParameterTypes.I_VelocityIAS, 0);                        

                        double altitude = aircraft.getParameter(part.ParameterTypes.I_Altitude, 0);

                        double mag_compass = aircraft.getParameter(part.ParameterTypes.I_MagneticCompass, 0);

                        double rep_compass = aircraft.getParameter(part.ParameterTypes.I_RepeaterCompass, 0);



                        double z_altitude = aircraft.getParameter(part.ParameterTypes.Z_AltitudeMSL, 0);

                        double z_ias = aircraft.getParameter(part.ParameterTypes.Z_VelocityTAS, 0);

                        double z_orientation = aircraft.getParameter(part.ParameterTypes.Z_Coordinates, 0);



                        GamePlay.gpLogServer(all, 

                                    "Frogbar v0.1:           HDG: " +

                                    mag_compass.ToString("0") +

                                    "           ALT: " +

                                    height.ToString("0") +

                                    "           SPD: " +

                                    ias.ToString("0"), null);

                    }

                }

            }                       

        }     

    }

}
