Fast rope script
«

Hi everyone! I made a fast rope script. I had a lot of problem with the code, mainly because Arma getPos function is bugged
, but now it works. My question is if anyone knows a way to insert something which looks like a rope and it is already in the basic game archive (I don't want to put any addon) or a way to create something like that with a script. For now soldiers just climb down the chopper but they are not grabbing anything which looks like weird. Thanks in advance!

If you mean an object, no. But you can create something like a rope using particles (drop command).

Can you explain how? Because I read the particle tutorial on the BiKi but they say you have to use a standard texture to attach to the particle array.

You may create a "rope" effect as a vertical line of small particles "billboard" type of dark brown color, one particle below the other till reaching ground level.

Ok but I don't understand what shape I have to use for the particle array. All examples there are made up of smoke and/or fire. I can't spawn a rope made of smoke

Oh yes, you can. Just try with small "smoke" no transparent brown particles.

Ok thanks, I'll try learning something more about particle arrays, for now I'm just interested in dropping down the soldiers to test the mission and that thing works.
