Problem unloading from helicopters
« on: 03 Jan 2004, 02:20:46 »
Hi. I haven't done any editing in awhile. Here's my problem.

1. Using Tonal Island, with Patches

2. Happens using BAS Blackhawks or stock BIS Blackhawks

3. The mission has BAS Deltas, Suchey's new Marines and Russian Naval Infantry and his Spetnaz. With a few BAS Opfor too.

  I cannot get the Marines to unload from a chopper. Or the BAS Delta's for that matter.

  I'm just using waypoints. The basic sequence is

The group GET IN the chooper, syncronized to a LOAD waypoint for the chopper. I don't assign them as cargo. I just have them GET IN with a waypoint for the group. This works fine, as it always has for me.

The chopper fly's off on it's waypoints. The next waypoint for the group (which doesn't include the chopper) is a GET OUT which I sync to a UNLOAD waypoint for the chopper. The group will not GET OUT! The chopper lands, and it shuts down. The group just sit's in the chopper. Won't budge ??? The chopper does have more waypoints after the UNLOAD waypoint.

  I tried using different units, ie Delta's instead of Marines. They still will not GET OUT!

  I never had this problem before. My OFP is patched to 1.94

Any Ideas?

Thanks :)

Use TRANSPORT UNLOAD, instead of UNLOAD.

try to set the chopper's last WP to 'transport unload'

2
If it does not work your soldiers will be surely disembark by using 'unassignVehicle' and 'leaveVehicle' command. These offcourse you can activate with the WP 'on activation' field or by a script started by reaching the WP (WP 'on activation')

Like I said, it's been awhile ;D

I knew I was missing something. "Transport Unload", lol.

Thanks
