enigmatics

That's what I'm paying for. DCS, LOMAC, FSX10, all come with advanced manuals. All I'm asking for is something basic and UP TO DATE. If I had known that the game didn't come with a manual explaining integral parts of the game I wouldn't have purchased it. I guess it was a bit presumptuous of me to assume something as basic as that.. and we all know what assuming gets ya.

I played the game intensely for a couple weeks and after trying to create a mission more advanced than placing a a bunch of guys around on way points I ended up shelving it. I check the forums every now and then to see if there's a producers note or a 3rd party guide to hold my hand going into the shallow end. All I need to continue playing is a basic introduction to advanced mission editing. Show me how the basic scripting language syntax works and why, along with a few examples/tutorials to get my brain flowing in the right direction. Then I should be able to figure out all those advanced commands. As of right now all I can find is "Use X code in your mission to do this." Well, the code is great, but I have no clue where to put it and WHY that code does what it does. Give me the rhyme and reason and all should be good. Until then the game is pretty worthless.
