HALO "Open Chute" gone after 2nd HALO jump

[semedar 0]

As the title says, I have a mission where once I destroy an object (RadarTower), it adds an action to a pilot back at base where it teleports me to inside a static C-130.

My current setup:

Trigger:

Axis A/B:
5 / Rectangle
Activation:
Anybody / Repeatedly / Present
Condition:
((getpos player select 2) > 4998)
On Act:
[player, 5000] exec "ca\air2\halo\data\Scripts\HALO_init.sqs";

pilotAddAction.sqf

/* Script By Semedar */

// Adds HALO Action Option
pilotHalo addAction [("<t color=""#0099FF"">" + ("C-130J HALO Jump") +"</t>"), "Scripts\Structures\pilotHalo.sqf"];
// Adds 3D Text On Object (Pilot)
waitUntil{(!(isNil "bis_fnc_init"))};
["<t size='.5'>[ <t color='#0099FF'>C-130J HALO Jump</t> ]",position pilotHalo,15,0] spawn bis_fnc_3Dcredits;
exit

pilotHalo.sqf

/* Script By Semedar */

// Teleports Player To The C130J
player setPosATL [1484.71,13248,5001.20]; player setDir 0;
// Tells The Player He Boarded The C130J
TitleText ["", "BLACK FADED", 3];
titleText ["You Boarded A C-130J", "BLACK OUT"];
// Blur Effect When Action Activated
"dynamicBlur" ppEffectEnable true;
"dynamicBlur" ppEffectAdjust [6];
"dynamicBlur" ppEffectCommit 0;
"dynamicBlur" ppEffectAdjust [0.0];
"dynamicBlur" ppEffectCommit 7;
sleep 7;
exit

The first jump works as expected, but once I land and go back to the C-130 and try to jump again the "Open Chute" action is no longer there and I can't control my character (move around) and ultimately die. :(

It has to do something with your trigger, the rest seems fine..

Everything works as it should, but the 2nd time I HALO drop, the ability to "Open Chute" is gone as well as the ability to move around while in HALO. I've listed anything relevant to the trigger. I'm stumped.

Stupid question: Does the static C130 drop (never tested it)?

Try putting the trigger-code into the pilotHalo.sqf.

Something like this?

pilotHalo.sqf

/* Script By Semedar */

// Creates The Trigger
_haloTrigger=createTrigger ["EmptyDetector",getPos C130J];
_haloTrigger setTriggerArea [5,5,0,true];
_haloTrigger setTriggerActivation ["ANY","PRESENT",true];
_haloTrigger setTriggerStatements ["((getpos player select 2) > 4998)", "[player, 5000] exec 'ca\air2\halo\data\Scripts\HALO_init.sqs'", "deleteVehicle __haloTrigger"];
_haloTrigger setTriggerText "C130J HALO";
_haloTrigger setTriggerType "NONE";
// Teleports Player To The C130J
player setPosATL [1484.71,13248,5001.20]; player setDir 0;
// Tells The Player He Boarded The C130J
TitleText ["", "BLACK FADED", 3];
titleText ["You Boarded A C-130J", "BLACK OUT"];
// Blur Effect When Action Activated
"dynamicBlur" ppEffectEnable true;
"dynamicBlur" ppEffectAdjust [6];
"dynamicBlur" ppEffectCommit 0;
"dynamicBlur" ppEffectAdjust [0.0];
"dynamicBlur" ppEffectCommit 7;
sleep 7;
exit

Edit: Just tried it and it still doesn't fix it.

No, don't generate the trigger via script...:eek:

Just check if player is inside the C130 and give him the Halo option..

Unluckily im not in front of my Arma to test it...:(

I wouldn't know how to check if the player is inside the Static C130 as it's just an object, not a vehicle. :confused_o:

Bamp. :)

could you check the distance between the unit and the c130? if (unitname distance myC130 < 3)
