As I don't know very well how scripts are working, I'm not sure if what I have in mind is possible, but I'll ask anyway:

I'm thinking about an automated behavior that will initiate emergency dive and evasive maneuvers as soon as a plane is spotted. IRL, this was the job of the watch crew, and not that of the captain (he might have been asleep, or eating, or whatever). Relaying the 'plane spotted' message to the skipper and waiting for him to order the emergency dive would have wasted valuable seconds, so it was up to the watch crew to ring the alarm.

Can scripts replicate this behavior, so that the AI takes evasive maneuvers on its own?
