I have never really messed with the files other than maybe changing a value or two, so creating something from scratch is way beyond me (right now). Earlier I created a mission that uses an empty helo, radio triggers to command the helicopter to different altitudes with the flyinheight, and setdir to change directions . The change in direction is immediate with no turning
. The altitude change to go down will happen immediately whereas to go up requires you to select the pilot and click on the map. The pilot also has to be given "Safe" and "Hold Fire" or he will go into attack mode and fly with his own intent.
It was with this that I wondered why no one has ever created Helicopter Gunner to Pilot communication scripts or even complete helo addon with the ability? If I can accomplish this much functionality in less than 10 minutes in the mission builder, how much is possible with someone a lot smarter than myself?
I know what I would like to see in added in functionality, I just don't know how to get it done.
