hi how do i make people eject from a heli, can I do it with triggers?
Also how can I make other units start in parachutes?
I would like some soldiers/marines to simulate a para regiment...

If you place some Paratroopers on the map and name them. (e.g. Para1 etc.) then make your Marines and place in their init field the command ----- this MoveInCargo Para1--------Then the Marine begins as a parachuter.
You can do the same with triggers by putting in the On Activation field --------Marine1 MoveInCargo Para1----------

Empty parachutes Chuckstone, Empty.

cheers for the swift reply but it isnt working....
I am using resistance so maybe there are different commands?

[Dirtman]

Try Marine1 MoveInDriver Para1

[Davies1]

Dirtman, I just figured this out and was about to come and gloat about it you cheeky little minx  
 ;D You got there first but yes it works wonders

[CrashnBurn]

So where's the cargo area of a parachute ?

[Davies1]

aye i thought that but then I thought of the way BIS has coded most simple stuff....  :-\

[Dirtman]

CrashnBurn there is no cargo area of a parachute...just the driver

[CrashnBurn]

I know, I was just teasing Chuck. ;D

[Davies1]

time to end this 'un
By the way you could store yourself and a few mates in a crate being para dropped (thus cargo) but enough of the smart-arse shit
Cheers for the help.
