Command Questions
« on: 11 Jan 2004, 01:31:27 »
I'm Busy with a big Co-op Mission for Single and Mutyplayer.
But the problem is I need a few commands but don't know em  :(

Questions are:

1:How do I make my chopper Stay on the Ground? Becease I made some Waypoints for him When 2 Planes are Destroyed the chopper will come to pick me up But the problem is The Chopper already Fly's in the air(He holds his position Till I destroyed the planes). But I want the chopper to stay on Ground and Fly's when Target is destroyed.
Anybody got answer for this one? ???

2: What Command do I let the chopper Land and wait till all the soldiers are in the chopper and then fly to the next location?

If I know these Answers It Would be a great Help and I Know for Sure That it ain't to hard to answer these Questions becease you people are L33T in making maps :)
THNX for the persons who Help me out here  ;)

1.   chopper1 setFuel 0    (and setfuel 1 when you want him to be able to fly)

2.  Choppers are tricky in OFP.   There are a couple of tutorials in the Editors Depot.    
Plenty of reviewed ArmA missions for you to play

That's Not what I ment  :P
The Chopper has to Stay On the Ground and when I Have destroyed the Planes the Chopper has to take off and get to next waypoint.

And then the Chopper has to Land and Wait untill all West Soldiers are in and then Take off to next waypoint

1: Chopper has to stay on ground untill Target is destroyed,and Then Takes off and goes to next WayPoint.
How do I do that?

2:How do I make Chopper land?

3:How Do I make Chopper wait till all Units are in and then takes off to next Waypoint?

Thnx again  :)

Like Macguba said.......setfuel to 0........the chopper will not leave the ground.........it has no fuel.

When you want it to leave the ground give it the fuel back again.

"choppername land "land"" is the command to have a chopper to land

generally what i do is syncronize the units i want (loading into the chopper) to the chopper's landing-waypoint.

if you're using scripts (and not waypoints), its more complicated :P

So the First Waypoint I Synch a Trigger to and in Condition field I type:

NameChopper Setfuel 0
I do that 1 in the first waypoint that's on HOLD

And Then I make the LOAD waypoint and i Synch a trigger to it and in that Condition Field I type:

NameChopper Setfuel 1

The Next Waypoint I make that Waypoint do I have to make it SCRIPTED or LOAD?

And in that Waypoint in the Condition field I type:

nameChopper Land

And then the chopper will come and pick me up  :)

Is that correctly?
