Saving an AAR


To save the AAR, click on the stop button of the AAR recording component. Selecting this will activate the save AAR panel:

∆ Image 12.5a: Save AAR file window

∆ Image 12g.: AAR recording component


∆ Image 12.5a: Save AAR file window

∆ Image 12g.1: Save AAR file window


When "Save" is clicked in the user interface above, the saving operation is carried out.  At this point VBS3 and VBS3Strike will both cease recording AARs. The save button will be disabled until and entry has been made in the text field.

In the text field, type the name of the file you wish the AAR to be saved as. Note: VBS3Strike will automatically append the map name and the .aar suffix.  It will also insert the date time representation before the file to match the VBS3 format. For example, the above name could translate to the file:
2011_8_2_19_57.exampleAARFileName.map_easterneuropeangeotypical25km.aar

VBS3Strike will save the VBS3 AAR with this filename and will save it to the [Documents\VBS3\AAR] directory of the current users directory.

It will also save a VBS3Strike AAR file to the same directory.  The VBS3Strike AAR file has the file name:
2011_8_2_19_57_exampleAARFileName_map_easterneuropeangeotypical25km.aarSim

Note:
the dots are changed to underscore in all except the final occurrence.  Also Sim is appended to the end of the filename.
