Ok, Im trying to start off my missions by having the group aboard a vehicle that is not part of the group and is on its way to the target but I havent figured out how. Until now my missions have always started at an airport where the team has to load on a choper for example. But sometimes the loading process+trip to target just takes too long.

Hey

I can't remember how to group the group, so I do it the straight forward way. ;)

1- Call you helicopter  "Chopper1"
2- Get a group of men  ::)
3- In the init feild of all the men, type:
                           this movincargo Chopper1
4- There is no step 4

O'Neil ;)

Or rather then typing that into each man's INIT field just do this mygroup=group this; "_x moveincargo (VehicleNameHere)" foreach units mygroup. This snippet only needs to be added into the group leaders INIT field.

"_x moveincargo vehiclename" foreach units group this

you dont use the brackets lol
