[SOLVED] Attaching smoke grenade to parachute fails

[Fastfood4Bigfoot 0]

Hi,

 

I'm trying to attach a smoke grenade to the player while parachuting. I think it can be boiled down to

("SmokeShellRed" createVehicle (position player)) attachto [player];

but this doesn't works as expected. While running on the ground it works totally perfect but while flying in the air the smoke shell just spawns beside the character and falls down to the ground.

Expected effect would be something like https://youtu.be/4nMvx33BZ1k?t=22. Any ideas what is missing?

 

Thx in advance!

Attach it to the parachute.

Okay. How do I refer to the parachute?

("SmokeShellRed" createVehicle (position player)) attachTo [player, [0, 0, 0], "lchodidlo"];

Thx a lot!

("SmokeShellRed" createVehicle (position player)) attachto [(vehicle  player)];

works fine.

 

I still tried to use

("SmokeShellRed" createVehicle (position player)) attachto [(backpackContainer player)];

, which just works as long as the parachute is still closed.

Doesn't that fail when the unit enters/is in a vehicle, though?

That one is equivalent to the boiled down version I posted at the beginning.

How can I close this thread now?

We don't do that here, but you can add a [SOLVED] to the title. Someone might have the same question in the future.
