Implements the core functions to provide Close Air Support in an Engage Core.Zone by an AIR Wrapper.Controllable or Wrapper.Group.
The AI_CAS_ZONE runs a process. It holds an AI in a Patrol Zone and when the AI is commanded to engage, it will fly to an Engage Zone.
The AI_CAS_ZONE is assigned a Wrapper.Group and this must be done before the AI_CAS_ZONE process can be started through the Start event.
Upon started, The AI will Route itself towards the random 3D point within a patrol zone, using a random speed within the given altitude and speed limits. Upon arrival at the 3D point, a new random 3D point will be selected within the patrol zone using the given limits. This cycle will continue until a fuel or damage threshold has been reached by the AI, or when the AI is commanded to RTB.
When the AI is commanded to provide Close Air Support (through the event Engage), the AI will fly towards the Engage Zone. Any target that is detected in the Engage Zone will be reported and will be destroyed by the AI.
The AI will detect the targets and will only destroy the targets within the Engage Zone.
Every target that is destroyed, is reported< by the AI.
Note that the AI does not know when the Engage Zone is cleared, and therefore will keep circling in the zone.
Until it is notified through the event Accomplish, which is to be triggered by an observing party:
- a FAC
- a timed event
- a menu option selected by a human
- a condition
- others ...
When the AI has accomplished the CAS, it will fly back to the Patrol Zone.
It will keep patrolling there, until it is notified to RTB or move to another CAS Zone. It can be notified to go RTB through the RTB event.
When the fuel threshold has been reached, the airplane will fly towards the nearest friendly airbase and will land.
AI_CAS_ZONE constructor
- AI_CAS_ZONE.New(): Creates a new AI_CAS_ZONE object.
AI_CAS_ZONE is a FSM
2.1. AI_CAS_ZONE States
- None ( Group ): The process is not started yet.
- Patrolling ( Group ): The AI is patrolling the Patrol Zone.
- Engaging ( Group ): The AI is engaging the targets in the Engage Zone, executing CAS.
- Returning ( Group ): The AI is returning to Base..
2.2. AI_CAS_ZONE Events
- **AI.AI_Patrol#AI_PATROL_ZONE.Start**: Start the process.
- **AI.AI_Patrol#AI_PATROL_ZONE.Route**: Route the AI to a new random 3D point within the Patrol Zone.
- **AI_CAS_ZONE.Engage**: Engage the AI to provide CAS in the Engage Zone, destroying any target it finds.
- **AI_CAS_ZONE.Abort**: Aborts the engagement and return patrolling in the patrol zone.
- **AI.AI_Patrol#AI_PATROL_ZONE.RTB**: Route the AI to the home base.
- **AI.AI_Patrol#AI_PATROL_ZONE.Detect**: The AI is detecting targets.
- **AI.AI_Patrol#AI_PATROL_ZONE.Detected**: The AI has detected new targets.
- **AI_CAS_ZONE.Destroy**: The AI has destroyed a target Wrapper.Unit.
- **AI_CAS_ZONE.Destroyed**: The AI has destroyed all target Wrapper.Units assigned in the CAS task.
- Status: The AI is checking status (fuel and damage). When the thresholds have been reached, the AI will RTB.

Clears the list of Wrapper.Unit#UNITs that were detected by the AI.

Defined in:
Synchronous Event Trigger for Event Detected.
Defined in:
Gets a list of Wrapper.Unit#UNITs that were detected by the AI.
No filtering is applied, so, ANY detected UNIT can be in this list. It is up to the mission designer to use the Wrapper.Unit class and methods to filter the targets.
When the AI is damaged beyond a certain threshold, it is required that the AI returns to the home base.
However, damage cannot be foreseen early on. Therefore, when the damage threshold is reached, the AI will return immediately to the home base (RTB). Note that for groups, the average damage of the complete group will be calculated. So, in a group of 4 airplanes, 2 lost and 2 with damage 0.2, the damage threshold will be 0.25.
Defined in:
Parameter:
#number PatrolDamageThreshold
The threshold in percentage (between 0 and 1) when the AI is considered to be damaged.
Return value:
self
When the AI is out of fuel, it is required that a new AI is started, before the old AI can return to the home base.
Therefore, with a parameter and a calculation of the distance to the home base, the fuel threshold is calculated. When the fuel threshold is reached, the AI will continue for a given time its patrol task in orbit, while a new AIControllable is targeted to the AI_PATROL_ZONE. Once the time is finished, the old AI will return to the base.
Defined in:
Parameters:
#number PatrolFuelThresholdPercentage
The threshold in percentage (between 0 and 1) when the AIControllable is considered to get out of fuel.
#number PatrolOutOfFuelOrbitTime
The amount of seconds the out of fuel AIControllable will orbit before returning to the base.
Return value:
self

Activate the detection.
The AI will detect for targets if the Detection is switched On.
Deactivate the detection.
The AI will NOT detect for targets.
Set the detection off.
The AI will NOT detect for targets. However, the list of already detected targets will be kept and can be enquired!
Set the detection on.
The AI will detect for targets.
Set the detection zone where the AI is detecting targets.
Defined in:
Parameter:
Core.Zone#ZONE DetectionZone
The zone where to detect targets.
Return value:
self
Set the interval in seconds between each detection executed by the AI.
The list of already detected targets will be kept and updated. Newly detected targets will be added, but already detected targets that were not detected in this cycle, will NOT be removed! The default interval is 30 seconds.
