Ejecting units from a chopper?

[Black Hawk 0]

I want to get 4 units to eject a chinook during an intro how would i do this without using a script

Type unitname action ["eject"] into a trigger's onactivation field.

I´ve tried that and I can´t make it work.....sure you didn´t use any additional commands or functions to make it work?

BlackHawk: I was given an URL to a page where you can read on how to solve it but I´ve tried myself yet....at work right now and I´ll have to wait tilll I GET HOME!! =)

Well it works for me.

No "unassignvehicle" commands needed or anything else at all? Just, unitname action ["eject"] ?

[Damage Inc 0]

Just that. It should work.

oh yeh whats the minimum height of the chopper before it can eject units

Choppers can eject units at any height, but they will probably be killed at any altitude lower than about 100.

[Damage Inc 0]

Do you have the trigger set right?

[Black Hawk 0]

yeh because the camera angle changes to what i set for the trigger

Perhaps you should try a script after all, that´s the only way I made it work satisfactory, besides, once you get used to scripting you´ll find that things work much better. I did. Take a look on my script that I made last night, it´s in my thread on this forum. I can mail it ti you later if you wish.
