Finding Destroyed models

[funkster]

Hi all,
had a post before with another issue and this one in it, the other issue was solved but not this, so Ive checked the other one as 'solved' cause no one answered for weeks.

So the one thing I want to know is: How do I access destroyed A10 models other than putting their health slider to 0 at start of mission?

The A10s are destroyed in the cutscene, then, in the actual mission, I want them to be there. Putting the health to zero does not work, as the player starts nearby, and they explode at the start, and sometimes not at all.

Any help much appreciated...

Try putting something like this in their init fielt:

this setFuel 0;removeAllWeapons this;this setDammage 1

The first two should prevent a large explosion, the last one should destroy it.

Not tested on A10s.  It works on Tanks.

You could try this script (destroyFarAway.sqs):

Code: [Select]

_plane = _this select 0

_pos = getPos _plane
_plane setPos [0,0,5000]
_plane setDamage 1
~1.5
_palne setPos _pos

exit
Then in the init field of the A10 put:

[this] exec "destroyFarAway.sqs"

This will make the A10 destruction happen far away (so you will not hear the blast, then it will put the destroyed plane back where it sarted.
