Helicopter Landing Direction
« on: 01 Jun 2003, 20:49:28 »
How do I make the heli's point in the direction I want when they land or go into a holding pattern?  Thanks for your help.

helos generally point to the direction of their next waypoint (+ or -) a bit of randomness mixed with stupidity. Adjusting or adding waypoints may help ensure they point somewhat toward the direction you want.

setDir or doWatch might help, but I wouldn't bet on it.
Plenty of reviewed ArmA missions for you to play

as for landing... grab snYpir's chopper landing script (editors depot) that makes choppers land properly... in the direction they started to land in... works a charm  :D
