3.1. Combat
Every 15 to 30 seconds, an aircraft will spawn on the map. 
When an aircraft is directly level with you, you will hear a beeping sound. This signifies that you are aligned with the aircraft on the y axis.
Once you are aligned, you can then fire your weapon. Rockets have a range of 35, and the machine gun has a range of 10.
Aircrafts have the same weapons as you, and will be able to fire back at you when you hit them. So be careful!
To obtain the precise location of an aircraft when it is near you, you can press W. You will be told if it is above or below you, whether it is to the left or right of you, and exactly how many tiles on the x axis is between you and the aircraft.
When you destroy an aircraft, you will gain silver, which can be used to apply upgrades.
