Top Secret!
The INTEL Concept
- Lightweight replacement for Functional.Detection#DETECTION
- Detect and track contacts consistently
- Detect and track clusters of contacts consistently
- Once detected and still alive, planes will be tracked 10 minutes, helicopters 20 minutes, ships and trains 1 hour, ground units 2 hours
- Use FSM events to link functionality into your scripts
Basic Usage
Set up a detection SET_GROUP
Red_DetectionSetGroup = SET_GROUP:New()
Red_DetectionSetGroup:FilterPrefixes( { "Red EWR" } )
Red_DetectionSetGroup:FilterOnce()
New Intel type detection for the red side, logname "KGB"
RedIntel = INTEL:New(Red_DetectionSetGroup, "red", "KGB")
RedIntel:SetClusterAnalysis(true, true)
RedIntel:SetVerbosity(2)
RedIntel:__Start(2)
Hook into new contacts found
function RedIntel:OnAfterNewContact(From, Event, To, Contact)
local text = string.format("NEW contact %s detected by %s", Contact.groupname, Contact.recce or "unknown")
MESSAGE:New(text, 15, "KGB"):ToAll()
end
## And/or new clusters found
function RedIntel:OnAfterNewCluster(From, Event, To, Cluster)
local text = string.format("NEW cluster #%d of size %d", Cluster.index, Cluster.size)
MESSAGE:New(text,15,"KGB"):ToAll()
end

Trace all methods in MOOSE
Set tracing for a class
Set tracing for a specific method of class
Set trace off.
Set trace on.
Set trace on or off Note that when trace is off, no BASE.Debug statement is performed, increasing performance! When Moose is loaded statically, (as one file), tracing is switched off by default.
So tracing must be switched on manually in your mission if you are using Moose statically. When moose is loading dynamically (for moose class development), tracing is switched on by default.
Defined in:
Parameter:
#boolean TraceOnOff
Switch the tracing on or off.
Usage:
-- Switch the tracing On
BASE:TraceOnOff( true )
-- Switch the tracing Off
BASE:TraceOnOff( false )
