Infantry sitting on armour?

So a video on armaholic i saw,demonstarted a new 3 island.Name Gorod i belive.

Pretty nice,but what caught my eye more was in the demo vid,it started off with a nice BMP,and russian troops,sitting on top og the veihicle,as russian troops denerally did with the BMP will traversing.Is there a way to do this in arma3?

It was probably a mod. If they were able to create their own island, making a few vehicles would be pretty easy.

Regardless, attachTo is the command you're looking for.

If you made your own vehicle you could make cargo proxies, whip up some animations, and be set. Maybe even include the fire from vehicles

yeah like these we made in A2, using cargo proxies

You don't need to be a modder to attach sitting units, put something like this in the unit init.

this attachTo [apc, [0.8, -0.1, -0.1] ]; 

then this code must be run after mission start

unitName switchmove "AidlPsitMstpSnonWnonDnon_ground00";

That's just one move, there's many, just search forum on how to find them

There's even an animation viewer in the editor to make things easy.
