Help creating a HALO jump in Arma 2 OA editor

[SPC_Hammonds 10]

Hi everyone! I'm REALLY sorry because I know I'm asking a question that has been asked a thousand times but I just can't seem to find the answer or even a hint at the direction to go in. I'm trying to create a scenario where me and my team HALO jump out of a C-130 in multiplayer mission editor. What I want to happen is for the C-130 (not controlled by me) to start on the ground. Then for me and my 12 man team to load into the back and the C-130 then take off towards our "objective" (big area I've filled with hostiles) so that me and my team can then HALO out and onto the ground to engage. If someone could walk me through this or just give me a hand in setting it up I'd really appreciate it.

This doesn't have to be anything super complex. This is a mission me and a few buddies are creating as our own little mission to fool around with as we learn more about the game and the editor. Thanks for reading and for any advice you give!

This is a script, for just that, ARMA-2-Realistic-Paradrop

The C-130 that you can jump from out the back, doesn't actually fly, I don't think, actually i'm not sure now? And this is pretty complicated, so some multiplayer parts don't work perfect. But, if your not using AI it works just fine, if I remember correctly. Some missions I've played start from a stationary c-130, a little lame, but much simpler.

You're right, it has been asked a thousand times. Google Search returns 2,440 results with just Arma2 halo alone.

You seriously couldn't find anything?

I meant I couldn't find anything on here in these forums. I'm on an iPad at work so my options are limited at the moment. But google did turn up alot just nothing like what I needed. It's mostly guys who just set the player height to 2000 and spawn in and float down. I running a mission off of a FOB built around an airfield with AI teams following me and other players running Aircover.

I don't necessarily have to have the C-130 do a whole back door drop and dive thing. I'm more looking for the option of having this 130 carry me and my AI controlled team over my AO and let us do a hop n pop. It doesn't have to be fancy. Like on TAW servers you just fall out of the bottom of the plane and pop your chute when you want. But I'm not sure how to make that and I'm it sure if I can make my AI team open their chutes. I'm really new to editor.
