--- **AI** - Build large airborne formations of aircraft.
-- 
-- **Features:**
--
--   * Build in-air formations consisting of more than 40 aircraft as one group.
--   * Build different formation types.
--   * Assign a group leader that will guide the large formation path.

--- AI_FORMATION class
-- @type AI_FORMATION
-- @extends Core.Fsm#FSM_SET
-- @field Wrapper.Unit#UNIT FollowUnit
-- @field Core.Set#SET_GROUP FollowGroupSet
-- @field #string FollowName
-- @field #AI_FORMATION.MODE FollowMode The mode the escort is in.
-- @field Core.Scheduler#SCHEDULER FollowScheduler The instance of the SCHEDULER class.
-- @field #number FollowDistance The current follow distance.
-- @field #boolean ReportTargets If true, nearby targets are reported.
-- @field DCS#AI.Option.Air.val.ROE OptionROE Which ROE is set to the FollowGroup.
-- @field DCS#AI.Option.Air.val.REACTION_ON_THREAT OptionReactionOnThreat Which REACTION_ON_THREAT is set to the FollowGroup.
-- @field #number dtFollow Time step between position updates.


--- Build large formations, make AI follow a @{Wrapper.Client#CLIENT} (player) leader or a @{Wrapper.Unit#UNIT} (AI) leader.
-- 
-- ![Banner Image](..\Images\deprecated.png)
--
-- AI_FORMATION makes AI @{Wrapper.Group#GROUP}s fly in formation of various compositions.
-- The AI_FORMATION class models formations in a different manner than the internal DCS formation logic!!!
-- The purpose of the class is to:
-- 
--   * Make formation building a process that can be managed while in flight, rather than a task.
--   * Human players can guide formations, consisting of larget planes.
--   * Build large formations (like a large bomber field).
--   * Form formations that DCS does not support off the shelve.
-- 
-- A few remarks:
-- 
--   * Depending on the type of plane, the change in direction by the leader may result in the formation getting disentangled while in flight and needs to be rebuild.
--   * Formations are vulnerable to collissions, but is depending on the type of plane, the distance between the planes and the speed and angle executed by the leader.
--   * Formations may take a while to build up.
-- 
-- As a result, the AI_FORMATION is not perfect, but is very useful to:
-- 
--   * Model large formations when flying straight line. You can build close formations when doing this.
--   * Make humans guide a large formation, when the planes are wide from each other.
--   
-- ## AI_FORMATION construction
-- 
-- Create a new SPAWN object with the @{#AI_FORMATION.New} method:
--
--   * @{#AI_FORMATION.New}(): Creates a new AI_FORMATION object from a @{Wrapper.Group#GROUP} for a @{Wrapper.Client#CLIENT} or a @{Wrapper.Unit#UNIT}, with an optional briefing text.
--
-- ## Formation methods
-- 
-- The following methods can be used to set or change the formation:
-- 
--  * @{#AI_FORMATION.FormationLine}(): Form a line formation (core formation function).
--  * @{#AI_FORMATION.FormationTrail}(): Form a trail formation.
--  * @{#AI_FORMATION.FormationLeftLine}(): Form a left line formation.
--  * @{#AI_FORMATION.FormationRightLine}(): Form a right line formation.
--  * @{#AI_FORMATION.FormationRightWing}(): Form a right wing formation.
--  * @{#AI_FORMATION.FormationLeftWing}(): Form a left wing formation.
--  * @{#AI_FORMATION.FormationCenterWing}(): Form a center wing formation.
--  * @{#AI_FORMATION.FormationCenterVic}(): Form a Vic formation (same as CenterWing.
--  * @{#AI_FORMATION.FormationCenterBoxed}(): Form a center boxed formation.
--  
-- ## Randomization
-- 
-- Use the method @{AI.AI_Formation#AI_FORMATION.SetFlightRandomization}() to simulate the formation flying errors that pilots make while in formation. Is a range set in meters.
