- to the play of Gunship 2000.

- Installation & Loading Considerations
-
- The simulation contains three 5 1/4" 1.2Mb disks or five 3 1/2"
- 720Kb disks.
- The simulation executes from a file called GS2000.COM, not
- GS2000.BAT; this file can not be modified. The simulation is still
- loaded by typing "GS2000" followed by "Return/Enter".
- The simulation can be installed only to a hard disk; it can not be
- installed to floppy disks.

- Manual Additions and Changes
-
- Page 26, Duplicate Helicopters: During a campaign, helicopters and
- weapon systems are at times unavailable for use. The "Duplicate
- Helicopter" function becomes inoperable if the duplication would
- violate these restrictions.

- Page 31, Pause: The large number of target types were too
- numerous to all be included in the manual, therefore, an on-line
- database is available for all target types. Whenever the "pause" key
- is activated while a target is locked, the game is paused and the data
- for that particular target is displayed. If "pause" is activated
- without a target lock, the simulation is paused normally. In both
- cases, press any key to continue the simulation.
- Page 32, Accelerate Time: The time is accelerated in steps of two,
- i.e., 2, 4, 6, 8...
- Page 32, Remote View (F7): Selector #2 can not be used to maintain
- the point of view. This key is used to switch target locks since this
- view is an active flight mode.
- Page 35, Autopilot: The autopilot can be engaged without having
- first set waypoints; it maintains the helicopter's current heading.
- Page 38, HUD: A mission clock has been added to the HUD; it
- appears in the upper left hand corner.

- Note on Strategy
-
- Pilots and flight leaders are directly rewarded for completing
- missions with smaller helicopters or less capable helicopters. The
- Task Force Commander is impressed by the pilot or flight leader that
- can complete a mission with AH-6G Defenders as opposed to AH-64C
- Longbow Apaches - the choice is yours.
