How to make Attack Helis attack Infantry

Recommended Posts

Pretty self explanatory. I want a kajman to attack an outpost full of enemy infantry but it just ignores the infantry.

You could start by replacing the infantry with biggest thing in the game. A tank. Give the tank no ammo and see if the chopper attacks it. I suspect the infantry are too small to be spotted.

I need it to be infantry... but thanks for the advice. It will spot vehicles but not infantry.

Depending on how you set up the mission I found out that revealing all infantry units to the chopper group and placing a seek and destroy waypoint above the enemy area works best.

Like Grumpy already said.: Revealing the targets does help a lot. Helicopers often have trouble spotting infantry on the ground, it can take them quite a while to notice them otherwise.

May seem obvious but, even when you reveal inf to a heli, pathfinding + lack of LOS will make it not to attack. Sometimes it will need a few runs until it reaches a nice point on which attack them. If you have placed your infantry in the middle of Tanoa's jungle, no game.

Hi Folks,

Man - I made a mission using two RHS Chinooks equipped with mini-guns delivering troops for an attack on a fort in Takistan - no explicit orders to attack anything - simply move in - drop troops and go home - they decimate the infantry with mini-guns - in fact my issue is they won't break off the attack and go home like the should - they just keep coming back for another gun run... Strange...

I think you just need to set the chopper to careless.
