On Critical Damage Report qeury...

[Gambit21]

Does this event trigger when an aircraft is so damaged that it's about to crash?

Or does it sometimes trigger when an aircraft has some fight left in it?

 

I'm trying to figure out what sort of custom radio message that I can pipe into this event, (for AI wingmen etc) so would an "I'm going in!" radio call be appropriate, or does it vary too much

to bother?

Wild guess :

 

in MP when you get your engine shot down, or loose elevator control, or the vertical tailfin, this trigger the message "XXX destroyed YYY" even if the plane is still flying and can be brought to base in some circumstances.

It could make sense that the OnCriticaDamage report is triggered at the same time for AI planes.

 

But that's only a guess.

Critical damage is a damage that put you on risk so no more fight...

My guess is @Gambit21 is going to do some testing and report back...

 I’ll make a test mission with some subtitle reports...and report back.
