The '''flight.dat''' files controls the movements of NPC airbourne vehicles in GTA3 and Vice City. These files are located in the data/paths folder in the GTA3 or Vice City directory. The <code>flight.dat</code> controls the Airtrain (the Boeing jets). The <code>flight2.dat</code> controls the DeadDodo. The <code>flight3.dat</code> controls the Dodo used in "S.A.M." in GTA3 and the Police Maverick in Vice City. The <code>flight4.dat</code> controls the Dodo used in "A Drop In The Ocean" in GTA3. These airbourne vehicles are not solid so you cannot collide into them and there are no drivers in them.

==Format==
The file starts with the number of coordinates that will be used in the file. The rest of the file are X, Y, and Z coordinates linked as a path in the game.

==Using It==
The following is for GTA3 only. Opcode [[0358]] is used to create the Dodo in GTA3 to follow the path from the flight4.dat file. Opcode [[0359]] checks if the Dodo is destroyed. Opcode [[033A]] creates the Dodo in GTA3 to follow the path from the flight3.dat file. Opcode [[033B]] checks if the Dodo landed on the ground and opcode [[033C]] checks if the Dodo is destroyed. Opcode [[035A]] gets the coordinates of both of the Dodos.

==Current Usage==
Not much is known about these files other than what is above.
