Feature Request: Despawn AI aircraft Command

[ZaltysZ]

Ataros,

are there problems with Ju88 ar He111? I ask because it might be not a despawn problem, but separate bug. If I recall correctly there was (or still is) a problem with Br.20: engines cout out as player switches pilot positions (there are 2 piliots in Br.20).

I did not try it myself yet. Will be able to test only tomorrow.

People report all bombers as far as I understand. This guy flies red side only i.e. Blenheims http://www.sukhoi.ru/forum/showthrea...=1#post1625736

There are problems with all muticrew aircraft if the player moves position. Would be nice if it could be fixed.

This code checks if plane is empty completely I guess. But this script worked only from a client PC used as server and did not work on a dedi server at least before the latest beta patch. That is why it was replaced with currently used script which works on dedi server.

We have to find out how to integrate this
if ((i.Place() as AiAircraft) == (actor as AiAircraft))
{
PlaneIsEmpty = false;

into currently working script shown above in my previous message.

    // destroys aircraft abandoned by a player
    public void _DespawnEmptyPlane(AiActor actor)
    {
        if (actor == null)
        { return; }

        Player[] Players = GamePlay.gpRemotePlayers();

        bool PlaneIsEmpty = true;

        foreach (Player i in Players)
        {
            if ((i.Place() as AiAircraft) == (actor as AiAircraft))
            {
                PlaneIsEmpty = false;
                break;
            }
        }

        if ((PlaneIsEmpty) && (actor as AiAircraft).IsAirborne())
        {

            (actor as AiAircraft).hitNamed(part.NamedDamageTypes.ControlsElevatorDisabled);
            (actor as AiAircraft).hitNamed(part.NamedDamageTypes.ControlsAileronsDisabled);
            (actor as AiAircraft).hitNamed(part.NamedDamageTypes.ControlsRudderDisabled);
            (actor as AiAircraft).hitNamed(part.NamedDamageTypes.Eng0TotalFailure);
            //for 2mots
            (actor as AiAircraft).hitNamed(part.NamedDamageTypes.Eng1TotalFailure);

            //then wait 10min
            Timeout(600.0, () =>
            {
                (actor as AiAircraft).Destroy();
            });

        }
        else if (PlaneIsEmpty)
        {
            (actor as AiAircraft).Destroy();
        }
    }

    public override void OnPlaceLeave(Player player, AiActor actor, int placeIndex)
    {
        base.OnPlaceLeave(player, actor, placeIndex);
        _DespawnEmptyPlane(actor);
    }
    // destroys crushlanded aircraft in 10 minutes
    public override void OnAircraftCrashLanded(int missionNumber, string shortName, AiAircraft aircraft)
    {
        base.OnAircraftCrashLanded(missionNumber, shortName, aircraft);
        Timeout(600, () =>
        {
            aircraft.Destroy();
        });
    }
}
