5.13. BornPlace aircrafts section¶

Note

BornPlaceAircraftsSectionParser is responsible for parsing BornPlaceN section, where N is sequence number of the home base. This section describes aircrafts which are available on the home base #N.

Each line describes attributes of a single aircraft. Lines, which start with +, mark continuation of previous line. Max line length is approximately 210-220 characters.

Section example:

[BornPlace1]
  Bf-109F-4 -1 1sc250 4sc50
  Bf-109G-6_Late 0
  Ju-88A-4 10 28xSC50 28xSC50_2xSC250 28xSC50_4xSC250
  + 2xSC1800 2xSC2000

Output example:

{
    'home_base_aircrafts_1': [
        {
            'code': 'Bf-109F-4',
            'limit': None,
            'weapon_limitations': [
                '1sc250',
                '4sc50',
            ],
        },
        {
            'code': 'Bf-109G-6_Late',
            'limit': 0,
            'weapon_limitations': [],
        },
        {
            'code': 'Ju-88A-4',
            'limit': 10,
            'weapon_limitations': [
                '28xSC50',
                '28xSC50_2xSC250',
                '28xSC50_4xSC250',
                '2xSC1800',
                '2xSC2000',
            ],
        },
    ],
}

Description:

The output of the parser is a dict with home_base_aircrafts_N item, where N is original home base number. This item contains a list of dictionaries. Each dictionary stores information about single aircraft.

Let’s examine the first line.

Bf-109F-4

Aircraft code name.

Output path:	`code`
Output type:	`str`
Output value:	original string value

0

Number of available aircrafts. This parameter makes sence only if home base has aircraft limitations turned on.

-1 means that the number of aircrafts is unlimited.

0 means that aircraft will not even be present in the list of available aircrafts in briefing.

Output path:	`limit`
Output type:	`int`
Output value:	`None` if `-1`, original value converted to integer number otherwise (always `None` for games of old versions)

1sc250 4sc50

List of code names of allowed weapons for this aircraft. This part is optional: if it is not present, than all available weapons will be allowed.

Output path:	`weapon_limits`
Output type:	`list`
Output value:	list of strings (list is always empty for games of old versions)
