Title: Creating a parachute after 15 minutes
Post by: Nobby on 24 Jan 2003, 22:44:49

Heres what I wanna do...
15 minutes After hearing a certain radio message I want a parachute to be created over a specific area, then for a unit to be placed in that parachute. Parachute height should be about 150-200m in air.

How?

Cheers.

Use

_delay=15*60
~_delay
_para= "Parachute" camcreate [x,y,z]

and "moveInDriver" if you want someone to man it.

What do I put in the [x,y,z] bit?
i've tried almost everything.

Cheers

Those are the coordinates where you'd like the parachute to be created.  Refer to the ComRef when you have these kinds of questions about commands.

So, if you know what the coordinates should be, then put them in directly.  Otherwise, you can get the coordinates (position) of some other object and create the parachute at that location.
