Title: choppers down
Post by: 456820 on 21 Mar 2005, 11:28:08

i have a cript that will make a chopper go down like in black hawk down but is it possible for the chopper to land at one place designated by a marker like the scripts activated so then the chopper spins out of control towrds the markr then land there.

Choppers land pretty much where they want.  You can force them by using an Invisible H and also by having a series of waypoints close together  each with a 'flyInHeight' lower then the previous one until you get it down to the gound.  

Bye the way did my other suggestion on loons in cargo work for you?

oh yes the loons in cargo seemed to work fine thanks for that
but i thought that i could use a setpos get markerpos "marker name"
but im not sure if that would work and i dont know the exact line of code to use

If no one is watching and you don't mind the chopper going there instantly try

choppername setPos getMarkerPos "markername"

Note - you must use the "
