The AIRBASEPOLICE_CAUCASUS class monitors the speed of the airplanes at the airbase during taxi.

The pilots may not drive faster than the maximum speed for the airbase, or they will be despawned.

The maximum speed for the airbases at Caucasus is 50 km/h.

The pilot will receive 3 times a warning during speeding. After the 3rd warning, if the pilot is still driving faster than the maximum allowed speed, the pilot will be kicked.

Different airbases have different maximum speeds, according safety regulations.

Airbases monitored

The following airbases are monitored at the Caucasus region:

Anapa Vityazevo
Batumi
Beslan
Gelendzhik
Gudauta
Kobuleti
Krasnodar Center
Krasnodar Pashkovsky
Krymsk
Kutaisi
Maykop Khanskaya
Mineralnye Vody
Mozdok
Nalchik
Novorossiysk
Senaki Kolkhi
Sochi Adler
Soganlug
Sukhumi Babushara
Tbilisi Lochini
Vaziani

Installation

In Single Player Missions

AIRBASEPOLICE is fully functional in single player.

In Multi Player Missions

AIRBASEPOLICE is NOT functional in multi player, for client machines connecting to the server, running the mission. Due to a bug in DCS since release 1.5, the despawning of clients are not anymore working in multi player. To work around this problem, a much better solution has been made, using the slot blocker script designed by Ciribob. With the help of Ciribob, this script has been extended to also kick client players while in flight. AIRBASEPOLICE is communicating with this modified script to kick players!

Install the file SimpleSlotBlockGameGUI.lua on the server, following the installation instructions described by Ciribob.

1. AIRBASEPOLICE_CAUCASUS Constructor

Creates a new AIRBASEPOLICE_CAUCASUS object that will monitor pilots taxiing behaviour.

-- This creates a new AIRBASEPOLICE_CAUCASUS object.

-- Create a set of all clients in the mission.
AllClientsSet = SET_CLIENT:New():FilterStart()

-- Monitor for these clients the airbases.
AirbasePoliceCaucasus = AIRBASEPOLICE_CAUCASUS:New( AllClientsSet )
