The downed pilot must be assigned a tactic, however the specific type does not matter because
speed is zero.

Click the goal icon to select it and display the Goal Object Properties Panels.On page one select
Approach Goal in the Type field.You must also specify the type of object that can pick up the
pilot in the lower half of page one.

the goal to be achieved.Also set a maximum speed that must be met in order for the pick up to
be complete.

For an object to actually be ‘picked up’ you must also select Remove Attached Object from the
Action drop-down list on the last page of the Goal Object Properties Panels.When the approach
goal criteria have been met, the object,in this case the downed pilot object, is removed from the
map.
KILL GOAL (ATTACHED)
Kill goals are always attached to objects.The platform to which the goal is attached must be
destroyed in order to satisfy this goal. On page one of the Object Properties Panel,you can specify
characteristics for the platform that must accomplish this goal. Similar to the other goal types,you
define the object by selecting the Side, Country, and Class properties. One additional option is the
ability to specify the percentage of damage that must occur in order to satisfy the goal. If, for
example, the player is required to cause 25% damage to a platform, add an attached Kill Goal to
that platform and specify 25 for the damage.The remaining Object Properties Panel pages are the
same as for Destination Goal, on p.190.
