Problem With Unloading Troops
« on: 23 Jul 2003, 22:12:33 »
I'm making a mission where a blackhawk transports troops and it will go back and forth droping units off...but my problem isnt with loading...but unloading....i tell it to transport unload....then unit to get out...and link them together...and when the helo gets to its waypoint it unloads the unit while its in the air....anyone know of a way to make it land first?

Learn about the command land.
Plenty of reviewed ArmA missions for you to play

you can also put a trigger along the waypoint........just before the actual position the waypoint ends and set it lke this

Activation: whichever side your using

and in the On activation type

helo (or your name) land "LAND"

another unlaoding problem is with transport unload as the player in command of a squad...

player gets dropped off then chopper hovers till u order men out... to work around things like this, just make the chopper flyinheight 0 in a waypoint placed right before the transport unload... works a charm :thumbsup:
