Add tasking tool #37

Open 132ndNeck opened 7 years ago

132ndNeck commented 7 years ago

Would it be possible to add a tasking tool fo ADMIN's., which can set up something like this:

http://www.quasar-49th.de/briefing_tool/index.php?menu=1&style=1st&tz=

In addition, it would be desirable to indivual pilots to be able to create their own flights.

So admins (mission hosts) can set up a variety of taskings and populate the Air Tasking Order , and individual flights can add flights to the ATO. For example if we have multiple pilots flying CAS in one area, as is the intention of the mission host/designer, but the intel show for example artillery units somewhere else, then someone can create a flight, fly there based on the intel and engage those. Or someone wanting to fly Air-to-air, can create a CAP somewhere, and in the tasking tool, show which areas and flight levels that are intended for any tasking, so that it also can populate either an Air Coordination Order, or add to the ATO.

If possible, maybe a option, to click on the map/or marker, and the have an option to create a tasking to that area.

Details on what the tasking tool should include, we can discuss if it is an option and possible to include it.

Here is one example from a input variant from the 476th (Based on the inputs and information on the website it then create the ATO, but also a automated Mission Data Card)

ATO can be visible, something like this:

These are just suggestions and visualisation on what could be done. If this is possible, we could discuss what fields and information would be needed to suit the 132nd Virtual Wing needs.

I was definitely planning for a feature like this - kind of mirroring what we currently have in the 132nd. To make the base design and functions for this is pretty straight forward, but currently we don't have any roles-function within MINT. This is in the works, but has less priority then features as it probably is not that big of an issue. People could just NOT push every button available to them, but rather only use the tools applicable for the 'role' they are playing.

I also want the data to be exportable so that it can be used on a community webpages etc.

@132ndNeck Do you have an example of a Mission Data Card?
