OK, just an overview here. There are now two functions in AIManager for creating an aircraft, both called "int createAircraft( ... )". The return value is a unique ID for that AI object. The first one has lots of parameters and will create an aircraft that flies in a straight line (or in a circle) at a constant altitude. This aircraft has no life-span, so if you want to delete it you must call destroyObject(int ID). The second one takes two parameters, the model path and the flightplan. This aircraft will terminate itself when it reaches the end of its flightplan. The flightplans can be pre-calculated and stored in XML files, or they can be created on-the-fly by another module (see Durk's traffic manager).
