|tName= ControlledTask

|vNum= 1.1

|type= Main task

|for= Airplanes, Helicopters, Ships, Ground Vehicles

|desc= A controlled task is a task that has start and/or stop conditions that will be used as a condition to start or stop the task.

Start conditions are executed only once when the task is reached in the task queue. If the conditions are not met the task will be skipped.

Stop Conditions are executed at a high rate

Can be used with any task in DCS. Note that options and commands do *NOT* have stopConditions. These tasks are executed immediately and take "no time" to run.

|avail= All

|form= This task needs to be in the following format.

ControlledTask= {
id = 'ControlledTask',
params = {
task = {
taskToExecute
},
condition = {
},
stopCondition = {
},
}
}

'''Required parameters''':
task : Any task to be executed

condition : Table of start conditions required to exist for the task to execute

stopCondition : Table of stop conditions that will end the task once met.

'''Optional Parameters''':

time : Time in seconds since mission start. A value of 3600 would be a condition of 1 hour into the mission

condition : string lua code that is executed. Requires return true for the condition to execute
if targetsKilled > 8 then return true end

userFlag : string or number of a user flag. By default checks if the flag is true/ isn't 0.

userFlagValue : boolean required if you want to check if the flag is false.

'''Start Condition Only:'''

probability : number 0-100 chance of the task executing. Is only checked once.

'''Stop Condition Only'''

lastWaypoint : number of the last waypoint that if the AI reach it will stop the task

duration : number duration in seconds that the task will run for.

|enum=

|exam= The following will have a 70% chance of executing the task "timedOrbit" which if executed will run for 15 minutes.

local timedOrbit = {
id = "ControlledTask",
params = {
task = {
id = 'Orbit',
params = {
pattern = 'Circle',
point = mist.utils.makeVec2(mist.getAvgPos(mist.makeUnitTable({'[g]arty'}))),
speed = 200,
altitude = 8000,
},
condition = {
probability = 70,
},
stopCondition = {
duration = 900,
},
},
}
Group.getByName('Reaper'):getController():pushTask(timedOrbit)

|notes= See article [[Mission Editor: AI Tasking]] for more information on how AI tasking is handled within DCS.
