High flying planes?
« on: 07 Sep 2002, 16:01:06 »
Does anyone know how to make a script to make a plane or helicopter fly in any height I choose.(especially planes). If there is one out there I can't find it
Thanks for the help.

put this in the INT field of your plane or whatever MyHeli FlyInHeight 100 where it says My Heli put your planes name. If this dont work make a script and put in the same code MyHeli FlyInHeight 100. save it as "what ever you want.sqs" in the same folder as the mission your making then, in the planes INT field put "[] exec "what ever you want.sqs" if there is more then one plane you can do it an easy way is make the script like this

plane1 FlyInHeight 100
plane2 FlyInHeight 100
plane3 FlyInHeight 100

Now just make one of the planes call the script, this should work.

ofp..hahha

I already know about the Flyinheight command I was wondering if there is a script (I can't script very well) that forces a plane to fly a certain height, say 500 ft.
Thanks for the help so far. ;D

You can make a plane fly higher by using the setpos command and setting the height part higher, the big problem is it won't turn as it needs to drop a wing to do so and the script won't allow this.
 If all you want is to fly in a straight line use this:

_obj    = _this select 0
_height = _this select 1
#loop
_objpos = getpos _obj
_objx   = _objpos select 0
_objy   = _objpos select 1
_objz   = _objpos select 2
_obj setpos [_objx,_objy,_height]
goto "loop"

and call it with this [unitname,500] exec"scriptname.sqs"

I wrote this from memory as I don't have OFP on this PC so it may not be perfect.

you change the INT field
this [unitname,500] exec"scriptname.sqs"
500 is where the heigth is

In resistance + v1.85 patch  you can tell a plane or helicopter to fly at the height you want by Typing in the INIT field of the Plane/Heli

This/Unitname flyinheight whatever


Hope this Helps

With the newest version of Resistance, the flyInHeight works beautifully with planes as well as helicopters.  I had an A-10 fly over a field and accidently clip a tree and explode.
