The Script.

Copy and past to a notepad, save as lander2.sqf

_heli = _this select 0;  // -- Selected Helo
_duration = _this select 1;  // -- Time to Rotat desierd direction on landing.
_dirEnd = _this select 2; // The Direction Facing on Landing.
_Heliz = _This Select 3;  // The Z value or Height of Touch Down.

_Helip = GetPos _Heli Select 2;
_dirSTart = direction _heli;

_dirDiff = (_dirStart - _dirEnd) / _duration;

DoStop _heli;
sleep 2; // Changing this Causes some intresting Sideways flying! Critical for Preicition landings.


_timeNow = time;
_timeFinal = _timeNow + _duration;

while {(time) <= _timeFinal} do {

	_i = (time) - _timeNow;

	_heli setdir (_dirStart - _dirDiff * _i);

	//hint str [_i,_dirDiff];  // Debig Info

sleep 0.01;

while {_Helip > _Heliz} do {_Helip = _Helip -1; _Heli Flyinheight _Helip;};

};

waitUntil {position _heli _Helip == _Heliz};
_Heli action ["engineOff", _Heli];

exit;

Enjoy.. PS: its a Newbee script, cuse I am a newbee! cheers.

Hey Peppy,

I am not sure how this is a "precise" landing script. It does make the helo land but in neither of your missions above did the helo land where you said it would. Is it just me?

I have been trying to make my own script where I have an endless loop of one helo dropping troops off and coming back to base to get more. I keep getting stuck on the return trip. The helo, before I used your script, wouldn't land. It would come close to its last waypoint and then hover. Your script has made it possible to land the helo, but now the troops won't get into the chopper. Anyway, thanks for the help!
