So there is a new "aircraft" download in the libraries here..... that let you "fly" a tornado or waterspout around. INSTANTLY I thought of .......

........so set up an AI flightplan... and you have a tornado crossing the USA midwest or southeast!

I'm going to try this. I'll let you know what happens.

The next logical question is .... can you set up somehow an "exclude" on the ground that removes the surface autogen "on the fly"? And better yet.... make destruction scenery appear as the tornado passes on it's "flightplan"?

Ideas... ideas....... likely impossible...... but I can dream can't I Wink

.

best,

If you can fly it you can make it AI Grin

That would be sorta neat to see. Have it criss cross all over the place (add legs to the flight Wink

)

Why yes, I am a noobie/newbie/knewbie

Well, I tried it and did not have any success. It will not show up as a AI for me no matter what I tried. I think it may share the AI bug that helos do.

Another thing to remember is it only looks realistic in stormy weather and unless you set it to storm all the time everywhere your going to end up seeing a tornado on a sunny cloudless day
