-----------------------------------------------------------------------------C O A L A F E A T U R E S----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Virtual Cockpit ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Unlike most simulators, the cockpit view is not a fixed view to the front of you. It is a 'real' three dimensional object, which enables you to look around in every direction. By pressing the right mouse button and moving the mouse, you can turn your 'head' around. It is possible to fly north and to turn your head from the West to the East. Or you can look up to watch a plane flying over. You can even look down and watch your own virtual hand moving the steering column. ( Set object detail to 10 in preferences menu ) Artificial Intelligent Living World ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In other games you are the only target of the enemy. In this game there exists a world living on his own. Enemy pilots choose their own targets and you are just one of them. You can watch planes killing tanks while flying past. There a lot of different vehicles and all of them have their own artificial intelligence. IHADSS Integrated helmet and display sighting system ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You don't have to line up your chopper to the target, it's enough to turn your head. Thanks to the virtual cockpit this system is very well

simulated ! Extensive flight computer ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Including many functions like radar, sattelite view, extensive databank, virtual camera and real-time battle reports. Flexible Viewposition Control ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ By using your mouse you can rotate around and zoom in/out all vehicles. You can even fly along enemy military hardware to study their tactics. Supported views : Inside, Outside, Independent, Missile and Sattelite. Nice light effects ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Real shadows, shading, depth cueing and a gradient horizon Cyclic world map ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The world never ends, just like in real life, it's round! The possibility to make your own scenario ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This makes all kinds of what-if scenario's possible. It's possible, for example, to launch 10 A10 warthogs against a single T72 tank. Four involved sides ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ East, West, UN and Civil. Which side is friendly and which is hostile depends fully on your own behaviour. Four surrounding types of area ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Forest, jungle, desert and ice Four times of days in which to start ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dawn, afternoon, nightfall and night Smart weapon systems ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hellfires : laser guided missile,lock on your reflected laser Sidewinders : infra red guided missile,lock on heat radiated by vehicles

----------------------------------------------------------------------------S Y S T E M R E Q U I R E M E N T S----------------------------------------------------------------------------Coala works on a standard A1200 and the A4000Although it will work on these platforms we suggest the use ofsome FAST memory. This will make the animation frame rate twice as fast !Coala detects and uses faster processors like the 68030 and 68040.For optimum game satisfaction we also recommend the use of a harddisk with2 Megabyte of free space.To be short, the minimum requirement is a 68020 processor and an AGAchipset. Everything above this minimum will be used by the game togive you faster/better graphics.If you are not sure about the system specifications of the computeryou use, please consult the manuals which came with your computer andadditional expansions.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------I N S T A L L A T I O N-----------------------------------------------------------------------------Coala can be installed on a harddisk.Before you proceed, make a backup copy of the gamedisk and use thisdisk to install the game instead of the original floppy disk.This will prevent the original game disk from being damaged.

The backup copy and the original is for private use only!If you're not sure of how to do this, please consult the manuals whichcame with your computer.Startup the workbench, insert the disk and doubleclick on the disk icon.The look for the icon called 'HDinstall' and doubleclick on this icon.After a while the program will ask you questions about the placewhere to store the game, answer these questions.After a short while the game is installed on your harddisk and cannow be played from your harddisk.If any of the above terms are unfamiliar, please consult the Workbenchmanual for further explanation.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------L O A D I N G-----------------------------------------------------------------------------To run Coala, simply Doubleclick on it's icon from the workbench or type'Coala' from the shell in the appropiate directory.

The missile will follow the path of the decoyand eventually wil hit you. The proper use of it is to release a decoy andturn away, leaving your original flight path, while the missile will continueflying after your decoy.You can choose from four different weapons. When landing on a friendly baseyou are automatically rearmed and refuelled.-30 MM GUN Bullets

unguided, short range Thanks to the IHADSS system ( integrated helmet and display sighting system) the 30 mm gun slaves automatically whenever you move your head. So you don't have to line up your chopper to the target-FFAR Unguided Rockets stabalized by rotating,long range. Because rockets are unguided, you have to line up your chopper to the target. Notice the movement of the crosshair when you move your head.-HELLFIRE Laser Guided Missiles Flies automatically to the vehicle/building your laser is pointing at. Since the missile flies to the reflecting point of your laser, you have to keep the laser pointing at the target UNTIL it hits the target. It's even possible to switch to a different target while the missile is flying. Long range-SIDEWINDER IR Guided Missiles Locks on the heat produced by the vehicle's engines. This is the only weapon that can be effectively used against fast moving objects like jet planes. Fire and Forget Long Range

----------------------------------------------------------------------------P R E F E R E N C E S----------------------------------------------------------------------------Since computer power is limited, a simulator is always a compromise betweengraphics detail and animation speed. Using the preferences menu you can setthis ratio to your own favour :Vision 0-1000World Detail 1-10Object Detail 1-10Shadows no/yesSurface Detail no/yesTime Compression slow motion/realtime/fast motionSound no/yesShaded Horizon no/yes

You can still cycle through the other vehicles and change your view direction.Esc Get out of your helicopter. Don't forget to first land your helicopter since it isn't exactly good for your health to jump out of a flying helicopter.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------G A M E P L A Y----------------------------------------------------------------------------In this game you will find yourself in a fully armed helicopter in the middleof a battlefield. You have no missions, no commanding officers and no

orders.The objective of this game is to find out what's happening in the battlefield,choose one side and to help them win the battle. There are a lot ofscenarios to choose from. It's even possible to make your own scenario or tolet the computer make a random scenario.Each scenario requires different tactics, for example it makes a bigdifference if you have to fight against 3 tanks+1 chopper or 1 tank+ 3choppers !When you first enter the battlefield you have neither enemies nor friends.The East and West side are at war and by attacking one of those sides yougot yourself involved in this battle.Every vehicle in the field has his own artificial intelligence. You have tofind out different tactics for each type of vehicle. For example :-Fighter planes won't be able to track you if you fly at a low attitude-The best tactic to kill a chopper is the ambush, for example behind a big building.-Always keep yourself covered by buildings or trees when approaching an AA-GUN.-You can escape missiles by using decoys, or to dart off perpendicular to the missiles's flight path-Use the right decoy (CHAFF/FLARE) for the right missileAlways remember that actions cause reactions. For example :-Killing a Western plane not only pleases the Eastern forces but also gives you a new enemy !-Attacking an UN vehicle gives you a very tough enemy : the rest of the world ! The UN will immediately send some F16 fighters after you !!! (if available)-Killing a red-cross/ambulance vehicle will make the enemy furious-You will only be rearmed and refueled at friendly basesIn the field you will encounter 4 sides : 1 East uses RUSSIAN equipment 2 West uses NATO equipment 3 UN (United Nations) attacking this side is not a very clever move 4 Civil don't find yourself brave by attacking this side

----------------------------------------------------------------------------C H O O S E S C E N A R I O M E N U----------------------------------------------------------------------------1 - PEACEVoted the most boring mission by anonymous descision.This scenario is perfectly suitable for practicing at flying the chopperand trying out 'new' techniques and strategies.2 - COLD WARThere is no war, but the tension is there. Be carefull at what you do,you might conflict a full scale war!3 - UN CONTROLLED CEASE FIREThe eastern and western force agreed on a cease fire, which is controlledby the United Nations. You can terminate this cease fire by attacking oneof the parties. Do not try out the patience of the UN by killing oneof their machines, unless you're sure you can dodge some jet planes!4 - TANK BATTLEAlthough the war rages on, eastern and western forces have restricted themselfat 'only' using tanks. Find out why the coala helicopter is nicknamed'tank killer' in this scenario.5 - GROUND WAR

After the use of tanks, AA'S are entering the battlefield as well asother vehicles. Stay clear of those AA vehicles, you might end up witha missile trying to get you.6 - HELICOPTER BATTLEFight head to head with other helicopters. Show them who reallycontrols the air!7 - AIR BATTLEBoth forces decided to let 'tank killers' and fighterplanes enter thebattlefield, this will require a new strategy when dealing withthe enemy.8 - TOTAL WAREvery vehicle the Eastern and Western force could find is dragged intothe war to finish off the enemy forever. You can expect a attack fromeverywhere, either ground or air!9 - RANDOMNow for a real challenge, try this scenario!You'll be the one to find out in what situation your landed and howto deal with it.10 - CUSTOM SCENARIOCreate your own scenario, please read this manual of how to do this.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------M A K E C U S T O M S C E N A R I O M E N U----------------------------------------------------------------------------This feature makes it possible for you to create your own scenario.You can define up to 20 vehicles from all four sides involved.You'll most likely to find this the most interesting option of the game,because it allows you to experiment with all kinds of what-if scenario's.If you want a real challenge always make Western forces equal to Eastern forces,but it's more interesting to create unfair situations. For example :- 10 warthogs against 10 Eastern trucks (road to hell)- 10 Migs against 1 Eagle (watch the crossfire)- 10 ZOO's mobile anti aircraft guns against 1 Cobra helicopter (dangerous grounds)- 10 tanks against 10 APC'S (tank's on holiday)But don't make the mistake by making the force ratio too extreme : Somevehicles might get killed by crossfire !If you want to watch artificial intelligence in action press in thegames to cycle through all the vehicles.
