i can't seem to get infantry units to fire at choppers unless its a machine gunner

even with commandfire / dofire they don't shoot at choppers with rifles

but no prob with a PK

not sure LCD, but maybe you could setpos one of those mapfact invis targets on/in the chopper.......

I think they have an infantry one. I know you don't like to use addons though....What does BIS use for targets in the game tutorials???

so doTarget, doWatch and doFire are already tried and tested and don't work?

Hmm maybe set the helo's ratting to something like -100000 and make the firing units engage at will, in combat mode.
