Actually flyinheight only applies to helicopters, so you'd have to use a little more primitive method:

place setpos[(getpos plane select 0), (getpos place select 1), height]

height being in meters above the ground. This is really the only way to make it fly any higher than is usually would, although it'll immediately start to loose height and return to its normal altitude.

Only real solution I can see would be a script. Why do you want your AI-flown aeroplane at a certain height? Maybe we can offer a workaround.

G'luck!

flyinheight does apply to planes.   They changed it.   Can't remember what upgrade it was, but in one of them they changed if from just choppers to both choppers and planes.

hehe, you were editing online but I was there, I was there, back then...
 ::) Only, I weren't aware of anything modern, like fansites or UCR's at that time; instead I spent months on getting an AI moron close to the camp fire so that HE could light it up ( ::) ;D ) making it 'ready to glow in the night' when me & my AI-gang arrived to the scene of action!  :-X :noo: ;D


ah well, crusty old WO, yanno! My kiddo have started editing now (he edit MY missions in the editor when I don't see it  >:( before I even get the chance to export them to the missions menu!  >:( :P ;D b*stard

ME: two days of frustration & hard work
HIM (he's almost 8 y.o. now): one hour of fun to blow up the whole mission!!  :'(  >:( ;D  


       :hmm: kids  ::)



*sorry d00ds, I got carried away there, I'll shuddup now*


Hope U get back to editing soon, m8  :-* :)
