can someone create me a script which goes along the lines of this

addaction ["Activate Jets", "activate.sqs"]

once activated it creates the jetpack heli-vehicle and puts the player inside it

remove the activate jets action and replace it with "Deactivate Jets" then the play is ejected and the jetpack deleted....arg lesson change..g2g

Do you already have a unit/model for the jetpack?

eazi mate, can b done with setvelocity command
just put in

man setvelocity [x,y,z]

x,y,z are values. How far left he goes, hoe high, how far, you can aslo put negative values.

[KJAM]

the setvelocity is a trick one because the direction values change in different directions e.g

asic velocity
[X,Z,Y] this is just how the numbers are arranged so facing north (default compass direction , 0 ,the command

this setvelocity [10,10,10]

would send the vehicle 10speed to the right, 10 speed forward and 10speed UP whereas

this setvelocity[-10,-10,10

would send it 10speed to the left, 10 speed backwards and 10speed up
though take in mind using a - number for the verticle would send the vehicle crashing down (if its in the air, and sometimes when its not) to earth and a bug that if you set the verticle too HIGH it hits the ground and gets destroyed, i dunno why that happens though

Guide to the Directions Setvelocity send the vehicle , relative to vehicles Azimut Heading
FACING NORTH
Y=Verticle*  a normal # is UP a -# is DOWN
Z=Forward/backward, normal # is FORWARD, a -# is BACKWARD
X= -Left/+Right (-# is LEFT: normal # = RIGHT on vehicles facing north)

FACING EAST X with a normal # is forward X with -# is backward:  Z with normal # is LEFT, Z with - # is RIGHT

FACING WEST
X with a -# is FORWARD X with normal number is BACKWARDS:Z with normal # is RIGHT, Z with - # is LEFT

FACING SOUTH
Z with a -# is FORWARD, Z with normal # is BACKWARD: X with a -# is RIGHT and a normal # is LEFT.

hope that helps the people who wanna use setpos

N.B
* means that it is a constant, no matter which Compass direction the direction this sends the vehicle remains the same
-# = A MINUS NUMBER E.G. -100
normal # = a positive number e.g 100
[X,Y,Z] replace any letter with a number

hope that helps but its still tricky

there si a jet pack addon created by Martin.  it works like a helo
