Dynamic AI Helicopter/Jet Spawn Script?

[infiltrator_2k 29]

I've got various vehicle and air spawn scripts, although I'm looking for one that works similar to I&A where AI air assets will keep spawning until an object is destroyed - in I&A's case the radio towers.

I'm currently working on a CQC mission but I'd also like to have helicopters and jets to add a little more of a challenge and dimension to the mission, but I'd ideally like an array of air assets to spawn at any one time and perhaps at different times oppose to set intervals where players know what's coming and at what time albeit until a trigger's activated to stop the air assets spawning.

Does anyone have any scripts that can achieve this?

Cheers

Might be one on my list under scripts or in the section for choppers and jets:

Thank you Gunter, I'll have a good look ;)

Feel free to pull the one out of I&A, it should be reasonably modular with some tweaking.

What spawn conditions did you require, and what sort of air assets were you intending for it to spawn?

I&A is an awesome mission and I've hosted and played many hours of it. The air assets and trigger conditions it has would be absolutely perfect for what I need, but the structure of I&A is pretty complex for a noob like me to decipher and I wouldn't know where to start pulling it :(

Thank you Dirty Haz I'll give it go.

There's an ambient jet/helicopter spawning script (TPW AIR) in TPW MODS which you also might be able to adopt to your needs.
