Generator/Forces/_How to add your own templates.txt

@@ -0,0 +1,9 @@
+You can add your own unit templates in this directory and they will appear in the mission generator.
+
+1) Create an empty mission on Caucasus 
+2) Add ground unit groups.
+3) Save the mission in this directory.
+
+Tips:
+-Drop your templates in the RotorOps Discord if you'd like to have them added in a release for everyone.
+-The mission generator will only extract blue ground units from the template when selected from the "Blue Forces" menu, and vice versa.

+You can add your own scenarios in this directory and they will appear in the mission generator.
+
+A scenario .miz file MUST have:
+
+1) Between 1-4 trigger zones called "ALPHA", "BRAVO", "CHARLIE", "DELTA"
+2) At least one trigger zone with a name that starts with "STAGING".
+3) A blue airport (recommend somewhere near your staging zone).
+4) A red airport (recommend somewhere near your last conflict zone).  
+
+Optional: 
+You can add smaller infantry spawning zones inside conflict zones.  Add near buildings to simulate infantry hiding within. Name them like "ALPHA_SPAWN", "ALPHA_SPAWN_2, etc.
+
+Tips:
+-The conflict game type can be played with blue forces on defense.  In this mode the last conflict zone is the only troop pickup zone.
+-Design your template so that it can be played in normal 'attacking' mode or 'defending' the conflict zone from enemy ground units starting from the staging zone.
+-Keep the zones fairly close together, both for helicopter and ground unit travel times. 
+-You can place static objects and units in a scenario template.
+-You can change mission briefing and other mission options in the template.
+-Drop your templates in the RotorOps Discord if you'd like to have them added in a release for everyone. Maintain a similar naming convention and be sure to credit yourself in the .miz name. 
+-Airfields can be captured with ground units.  You might consider placing conflict zones over neutral airfields and adding unarmed client slots.

+# What is RotorOps?
+RotorOps brings the ground war in DCS to life.  Infantry becomes useful, and the helicopter operations that support them  will directly contribute to the success of the mission.
+RotorOps is a DCS script that makes it easy to create fun and engaging missions on the fly, directly in the mission editor and without ever opening a script file.  
+
+## Demo Missions
+RotorOps: Aleppo Under Siege  https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3320079/
+
+# RotorOps: Conflict
+At the heart of this first release is a game type called Conflict, where attacking forces must clear Conflict Zones of defending ground forces. Once a zone is cleared, the next zone is activated and ground vehicles will move to the next Conflict Zone automatically.  It's up to the rotorheads to pickup troops from the cleared zones and transport them to the active Conflict Zone. 
+
+![alt text](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/spencershepard/RotorOps/develop/documentation/images/rotorops%20conflict%20zones.png?raw=true)
+
+
+### Do I have to transport troops?
+This is really up to the mission designer. Transporting troops is not required for mission success in Conflict.  However, friendly troops can be a very valuable asset, especially for clearing enemies in dense urban areas.  If you're in a fixed wing or attack helicopter role, troop transport could be provided by other players or AI.
+
+### What about attack helicopters?  
+The constantly moving infantry is easier to see than the statues we are used to seeing.  Destroying defending enemy vehicles so that our troops and vehicles can survive, and intercepting enemy reinforcements may be crucial to mission success.  
+
+### How do I create a Conflict mission?
+Just open a demo mission in the DCS mission editor and drop units into the Conflict Zones.  These are trigger areas drawn in the mission editor that will automatically control the ground forces that enter them.  This means that you do not need to worry about creating waypoints; enemy vehicles and infantry will seek each other out automatically.  Move the Conflict Zones or change their size, add friendly or enemy units (remember, no waypoints needed).
+
+Optional USER FLAGS are available to trigger events based on the status of individual zones and the game as a whole.  Simple DO SCRIPT waypoint actions are available to drop troops from friendly or enemy AI helicopters or ground vehicles.
