Title: Helicopter dropoff
Post by: IanJensen on 27 Jun 2003, 16:09:32

Helicopter Landing.

Help.

My chopper will land to drop off the troops in the mission preview, but will just fly on by and not land once exported to a single player mission!!!

Have "chop land â€Ëœland'" in the waypoint,
have synchronized  "chop "unloadcargo waypoint" with "group getout waypoint"
Have the chop safe, never fire.
Even unassigned group members from chopper.

Crazy, will work in preview, but not in mission???

You don't need the land command.  The transport unload waypoint takes care of that automatically.  make sure the chopper's waypoint is a "transport unload" waypoint.  Don't have the infantry and the heli in the same group (looks like you've done that).

Let us know.  :)

Thanks,
It seems my problem was that I had the waypoints too close. I was reading one of the posts that the choppers reach the waypoint 100-150mtrs before. Well I moved the move away from the unloadcargo, and all ok. Seems strange that this did not affect the preview..
Well I can continue with my mission now.
