Forcing user to select an entry first before actual flight

[VR Flight Guy in PJ Pants]

The title may be a bit confusing, so here are the details:

1. The goal is to allow the user to use one mission file to select one enemy plane type;

2. The way I used to was using the communication menu and "F10 Others";

3. The user can hit the comm menu, select F10 and choose an enemy plane from the list;

4. However, if the player does not choose a plane after closing the "Briefing Screen", the game would not work;

5. My current thoughts would be: enforce Active Pause one the game starts using Trigger;

6. At the same time, show a message prompting playing selecting an enemy plane from comm menu; and

7 When the game is unpaused and no enemy plane was active, the mission would end immediately.

I think it is not very user-friendly but this is what I can think of right now.

@VFGiPJP, sounds like you may have your F10 triggers tied to a Mission Start Trigger?

Post you mission and we can have a look and see how to help.

Great idea! Let me give it a shot first.

BTW, is there any other way to force player to select something, other than the own plane, at start?

Hey @VFGiPJPI can't get into your mission due to the mods you have there.  Sorry.  

For a single player mission you can do it quite easily with an active pause command at mission start.  Then add your radio menu, then active pause off when the player has chosen.

Check out the mission I just made for an example.
