Title: Stay and move wen I say
Post by: max_killer_payne on 14 Jul 2003, 19:23:41

I'm making a 'Nam mission and a cutscene kicks off when everyone is in a chopper. It never happened before, just earlier today when I was editing the mission. The chopper begins to take off. And this is only supposed to happen when everyone is on board the chopper (I use a trigger for this) but it doesent takes off and hovers around then moves off a tiny bit. I've tried loadsa commands to try and make sure it doesent fly off so far I've tried:

DoStop True
CommandStop True
DoStop This
CommandStop This
Heli Disableai "Move"

none of the work, is there a command to make sure the engine doesent start. And then when everyone is on board the chopper then starts its engine.

Have you tried choppername stop true in initfield? Usually just typing choppername flyInHeight 0 in choppers load waypoint works for me.

Here's an easy way using a single trigger. Set the fuel slider on the helo to 0. Count the total units that will be in the helo including the pilots. Let's say 6 guys are getting in as cargo, and you have 2 pilots for a total of 8 dudes. The trigger condition would be-

count crew heloname > 7

on activation-

heloname setfuel 1

This will work as long as none of em are killed in battle, so it's usefull for cutscenes mostly.
