Helicopter waits till I need him

[Iwesshome]

Ok,

Tried searching the boards but I guess I am not using good keywords.

- I want a helicopter to start its engine... allow troops to board... then wait with engines roaring till trigger or script tells him to take off.

Possible?

You could try and use

this flyinheight 0

in the choppers initialization box, then when u are ready, have a trigger that tells it to move.


Hope this helps

Sounds like that would work... try it tonight when I get home.

The trigger - Now I am not proficent with triggers and have been trying to get them to work.

Can you take a look at the attached file and see how that can be merged into lets say a radio trigger or action trigger? I perfer action trigger...

Thanks

below is posted a pic showing an example of a radio trigger...

and here's one of an action trigger, showing a situation where the chopper will wait at the waypoint until east enters the trigger

by the way, you can get a nice blue line like that connected to the waypoint by pressing F5 (or choosing synchronize at the top) and click and hold from the trigger to the waypoint
