« on: 25 Sep 2003, 22:22:35 »
how can i get choppers go in a column without the first one stopping and waiting for the other then when he the first one slows down the others stop where he did.  How can i stop this and just make them go straight

 The choppers are stopping at their waypoints...   a common problem with waypoints and choppers..

one way to solve the problem is to use triggers instead with DoMove command s in them

the idea being that if you tell it to move to  say  a named gamelogic or something (G1)  

heliname doMove Getpos G1

so it starts to move off towards G1

but before it can get there and stop for a second you can give another command

DoMove Getpos G2 ....   etc....

so it should be a smooth ride from spot to spot

If you'd check out the comref, you'd have seen that this is
controlled also by the speed settings in the waypoint's menu.

speed: limited/normal - will make them wait 'till every unit
has completed the waypoint

speed: full - will let 'em pass the waypoint without waiting
for the slower peeps in the group
