HElicoper engine command

[Dr. Egg]

hi, its me again sorry  ;D


er is there a command for a unit (vehicle) to tunr its engine off that does NOT USE THE GET OUT WAYPOINT

cheers

[Igor Drukov]

Do something like this :
create a trigger that will be activated by the event that will make your vehicle stop and put "dostop nameofmyvehicle" in the activation field. Your vehicle will turn off its engine after a few seconds.
To get it moving again, use another trigger, with whatever condition you need, and put "nameofmyvehicle domove getwppos [nameofmyvehicle, x]", where x is the number of the next waypoint you want your vehicle to go.
Is that clear enough ?
Don't forget to remove the " " in your line of command !

k this is just for the record

i sort fo half figured it out

i used it noramlly but i put a trigger with the setfuel command to 0 and made the waypoint to GET OUT

jus as the helicopter is about to pull away to land on....the land, it runs out of fuel, loses alitiude and lands on the deck of the LSD

they get out...

it could be used!!

but it requires timing and there has got to be a easier way, im leaving this unsolved

So you want him to land and keep its engine on for a while ?

[Dr. Egg]

no i want him to land, engine off and then get out

[Igor Drukov]

Without waypoint, that's it ?

[Dr. Egg]

k this is becoming confusing


all i want is a command that will turn off the engine

and a command to make units disembark froma vehicle

a command

not a waypoint (but the command could be used in a waypoint tho)

[Igor Drukov]

All right. The "dostop" command WILL turn your engine off. To make the units get out of the chopper, use "Unassignvehicle myunit".
If there is still something wrong, give more info about the units (group, where do they go, are there only the pilots or is there also cargo, etc.)
Cheerio   !

[Dr. Egg]

nah, lol its alright now
i use the set fuel command, its a bumpy landing but it works, an i can get them to go off again by using a nother setfuel command so its alll good

thanks for you help newayz
