User Guide

The acronyms on the chalkboard represent target types, and the numbers beside
each indicate how many targets of that type were eliminated during the mission.
Your score appears on the board, and accumulates during your pilot’s career.
Important Note: If you activate
INVULNERABLE
or
UNLIMITED AMMO
options during a
mission, the current mission score will not be added to your total score.
MISSION PLANNER Select the Mission Planning computer to view a detailed
(Extended Debrief) summary of the previous mission, including a status break-
down of every objective in the mission, all targets hit, an
overall mission summary, and report on friendly casualties.
RE-FLY MISSION Select the flight helmet to fly the previous mission again. A
popup box will display and ask wish to change parameters.
Select
NO to fly with the same mission setup. Select YES to
got the Mission Planner and adjust your setup.
ACCEPT Select the curtain to exit the Debriefing Area. This returns
you to the main mission screen for that mission type. It
also saves your pilot’s progress for that mission.
Saving Your Progress
The game has an automatic save feature that saves your progress each time you
exit the Debriefing Area. It records scores and other mission stats for individual
and campaign missions to the active pilot’s stat sheet. (Instant Action Missions
don’t count.)
Whenever the active pilot is captured, killed or missing in action, he/she moves to
“Inactive” status. Since this is an important action that ends the pilot’s career, the
game prompts you with a plaque to confirm this action.
This happens regardless
of whether automatic saving is active or not.
If you confirm the action (by
pressing Y), that pilot will no longer be available. To preserve the pilot’s career,
press N and re-fly the mission, or select the flight helmet on the table in the
Debriefing area.
The
ALLOW AUTOMATIC SAVING feature may be turned off in the OPTIONS menu by de-
selecting the checkbox (it defaults to
ON).
Leave the
ALLOW AUTOMATIC SAVING feature active if you don’t want to be
prompted to save after every mission. (If your pilot is killed/missing/captured,
however, you will be prompted anyway.)
Deactivate the automatic save feature if you want to be prompted to save after
every mission, whether or not the mission was successful.
