Their descriptions and functions. We want to learn the functions of all the campaign files and describe them as through as possible so we gain greater understanding of the campaign and how it works.

The following list is taken from SuperPAK v4.2 campaign/save/ directory.

atc.ini

attrit.pri

not used AFAIK

AFAIK it “was” suppose to change to different priority according to how campaign goes, but wasn't done .

Auto Save.cam, .frc and .his

The default automatic saves of campaigns. These files should be deleted before new theater is released.

cas.pri not used AFAIK

AFAIK it “was” suppose to change to different priority according to how campaign goes, but wasn't done .

Falcon4.AII

 
LongrangePlanMinTime – If the mission is longer than or equal to and the Time on Target is less than this value,
 the mission will be cancelled.
LongrangePlanMaxTime – Not Used
AircraftAssignmentRatio – Not Used
MaxFlymissionThreat – This is used when the mission is not flagged in the Mission.dat as either High Threat or No Threat missions.
MaxFlymissionHighThreat - This is used when the mission is flagged as a high threat mission in the mission.dat file
MaxFlymissionNoThreat - This is used when the mission is flagged as a no threat mission in the mission.dat file.  
      (Increasing this to 100 boosts up mission tasking).
MinSeadescortThreat – When the target area’s threat value is worked out to be higher than this 
 (looks at the min and max altitudes for the mission type), the ATO will add a SEAD Escort request to the package.
MinAvoidThreat – When Falcon makes a mission, it checks the threat at the ingress and egress waypoints –
  if the threat is higher than this value, then the mission planner tries to create a waypoint around the threat      
  (within the AirPathMax value). 
  If it can not find a way around the mission is cancelled.
MinAssemblyPtDist – The minimum distance from mission start that the Assembly point can be (In Km)
BreakpointDist – The distance that the breakpoint should be from home plate. (In Km)

MinimumAWACSDistance – The closest an AWACS will get to the FLOT (In Km)
MaximumAWACSDistance – The furthest an AWACS will get from the FLOT (In Km)
MinimumJSTARDistance – The closest a JSTARS a/c will get to the FLOT (In Km)
MaximumJSTARDistance – The furthest a JSTARS a/c will get from the FLOT (In Km)
MinimumTankerDistance – The closet a Tanker will get to the FLOT (In Km)
MaximumTankerDistance – The furthest a Tanker will get from the FLOT (In Km)
MinimumECMDistance – The closet an ECM flight will get to the FLOT (in Km)
MaximumECMDistance  - The furthest an ECM flight will get from the FLOT (in Km)
FirstColonel – Sets the start of names for Colonels
FirstCommander – sets the start of names for Commanders
FirstWingman – sets the start of names for Wingman 
LastWingman – Sets the end of names for wingman
MaxEscortAAStrength – Not Used
BARCAPRequestInterval – The time between BARCAP Planning Requests
OnCallFlightsPerRequest – The amount of On Call Flights per FAC mission
AirTaskTime – Not Used
AirPlanTime  - Sets Average Sortie Rate  = 60/AirPlanTime = Avg Sortie Rate.
VictoryConditionTime – How often the victory conditions are checked in TE
FlightMoveCheckInterval – How often the campaign checks the movement of flights. (in seconds)
FlightCombatCheckInterval – How often the campaign checks combat between flights (in seconds)
AirUpdateCheckInterval – How often the campaign checks the movement of squadrons/packages (in seconds)
PackageCyclesToWait –sets how many cycles a mission will wait for Tankers and other support aircraft.
AirPathMax - Max search range when trying to find a safe path between two waypoints. Limits the searching to this value
MinimumIgnoreRange – The closest range where an aircraft is ignored. (in Km)
MaxSARDistance – The furthest behind the FLOT that SAR can be undertaken.
MaxBAIDistance  - The furthest behind the FLOT that BAI can be undertaken.
PilotAssignTime – The amount of time before T/O time that the pilot gets assigned to the mission.
AircraftTurnaroundMinutes – How long after an aircraft has completed a mission before it is ready for use again.
