Can a script be made?

[Deacon352nd]

In setting up radar sites, can incoming enemy aircraft altitude be shown?  I know that the spotter type can be either cylinder or sphere and the cylinder will show EA as soon as they enter the radius, while the sphere will show the EA location on the map depending on their altitude in correlation the the sphere radius. But can the altitude be announced via a script?

Not sure it's possible with simple stuff.
I am still learning the editor so do not take my word for it.

What is your exact use case? Is this for a scripted mission with only one plane ? For a general system  to show on a server the altitude of any planes entering the area ? 

Depending on the use case, it  could be possible to "hack" it using large enough sphere check-zones with centers below ground level, that trigger some message on screen.

As far as I know you cannot get from an MCU the exact altitude of an airplane. You will need a lot of spheres to do something precise enough. Your cylinder and spheres combined can give distance and altitude. You can use them together to trigger a subtitle in which you display as text the altitude and distance or one subtitle for distance and one for altitude.

You can also trigger a media playing a sound track where a radar operator would announce verbally distance and/or altitude.

How do you use them together to trigger a subtitle as text the altitude and distance?  Thank you in advance for this info.

You link them together through a Counter. The counter act as an AND. Example IF A AND B AND C are True THEN do D. 

This to works needs the counter parameter set to 3. A, B, C, will be Target linked to the Counter which will fire only if the three conditions are met. The Counter is Target linked to D

 

IF you want to have IF A OR B OR C are True THEN do D.

In this case you will Target link A, B, C to a Counter which parameter will be set to 1. It will then fire if one of A, B or C happens.

Using counters avoids multiple spurious firings.
