Flowstates are the different parts of a mission or freeflight such as intro, approach, and parking. Flow events are special actions which control ‘sim-level’ actions such as enabling the VFR map, pausing the simulation, and changing the camera.

You can also use flowstates to start animated (RTC) intros and and outros, like the ones in bushtrips, landing challenges, and freeflight.

See MSFS Mission Script for general information about creating a mission script.
