Module Menu

Core -- MENU_ classes model the definition of hierarchical menu structures and commands for players within a mission.

---

DCS Menus can be managed using the MENU classes. The advantage of using MENU classes is that it hides the complexity of dealing with menu management in more advanced scanerios where you need to set menus and later remove them, and later set them again. You'll find while using use normal DCS scripting functions, that setting and removing menus is not a easy feat if you have complex menu hierarchies defined. Using the MOOSE menu classes, the removal and refreshing of menus are nicely being handled within these classes, and becomes much more easy. On top, MOOSE implements variable parameter passing for command menus.

There are basically two different MENU class types that you need to use:

To manage main menus, the classes begin with MENU_:

• Menu#MENU_MISSION: Manages main menus for whole mission file.
• Menu#MENU_COALITION: Manages main menus for whole coalition.
• Menu#MENU_GROUP: Manages main menus for GROUPs.
• Menu#MENU_CLIENT: Manages main menus for CLIENTs. This manages menus for units with the skill level "Client".

To manage command menus, which are menus that allow the player to issue functions, the classes begin with MENUCOMMAND:

• Menu#MENUMISSIONCOMMAND: Manages command menus for whole mission file.
• Menu#MENUCOALITIONCOMMAND: Manages command menus for whole coalition.
• Menu#MENUGROUPCOMMAND: Manages command menus for GROUPs.
• Menu#MENUCLIENTCOMMAND: Manages command menus for CLIENTs. This manages menus for units with the skill level "Client".

#MENU_BASE MENU_BASE

MENU_BASE class, extends Base#BASE

The MENU_BASE class defines the main MENU class where other MENU classes are derived from.

This is an abstract class, so don't use it.

#MENU_CLIENT MENU_CLIENT

MENU_CLIENT class, extends Menu#MENU_BASE

The MENU_CLIENT class manages the main menus for coalitions.

You can add menus with the MENU_CLIENT.New method, which constructs a MENU_CLIENT object and returns you the object reference. Using this object reference, you can then remove ALL the menus and submenus underlying automatically with MENU_CLIENT.Remove.

Usage:

 -- This demo creates a menu structure for the two clients of planes.
 -- Each client will receive a different menu structure.
 -- To test, join the planes, then look at the other radio menus (Option F10).
 -- Then switch planes and check if the menu is still there.
 -- And play with the Add and Remove menu options.
 
 -- Note that in multi player, this will only work after the DCS clients bug is solved.
