Paradrop from C130

[alexsegen 17]

Hello guys,

Here is the thing, I don't really like the Halo scripts I've found and I wanted to give our gameplay a little more realism, so I was thinking about this:

I would like to place a C130 **flying** in circle arround the map with its proper waypoints and altitude to perform paradrops. Also, we must teleport to that plane only from an object X (flag pole for example) placed at our Base.

I know, pretty difficult. But is there any script or mod that can help me with it?

PS: If it works with JIP players and dedi server would be better.

Thanks in advance!

//addaction on flag pole

this addAction 
[
  "Go to C130",
  {
     (_this select 1) moveInCargo C130Name;
  }
];

Thank you! That worked perfect in the edito... at least. Need to try it on my dedi. Do you know how to make the screen fade to black for.. mmm 3 seconds? You know, so the "teleport" doesn't seem too forced :P

Ok so I have all set but turns out i cant "eject" from the C130. The action is missing. I've added this line

this addAction ["Eject",{player action [ "eject", vehicle player]},[],1,false,true,"","_this in _target"];

But didn't work. I can see "Eject" in the action menu but doesn't do anything. Any idea?

Yea I don't think the "eject" action works in Arma 3, try "moveOut", I think that's right. This was brought up in a thread a while back but I don't exactly remember.

It worked with GetOut instead but thanks! I couldn't set the fade screen and i'm gonna keep trying. But first, I will test this with my friends.

Thanks again four your help! :cool:

EDIT: The "eject" action didn't work with our MP session. It was in the action menu but din't do anything.
