Static Line ParaDrop

[sowens 71]

I've been working on a static line para drop for awhile. When the aircraft reaches the completion radius of a waypoint, it fires a script to start a static line jump. Most of the time it works. Sometimes the helicopter flies in circles and never starts the drop. I am at the point where I am not sure what else to do as raising the waypointCompletionRadius does not fix the issue 100%. Thanks in advance.

 

        _newvehicle flyInHeight 75;

        _waypoint = _pilot_group addWaypoint [ _pos, 25];
        _waypoint setWaypointType "LOITER";
        _waypoint setWaypointSpeed "FULL";
        _waypoint setWaypointBehaviour "CARELESS";
        _waypoint setWaypointCombatMode "BLUE";
        _waypoint setWaypointCompletionRadius 300;
        _newvehicle flyInHeight 75;
        [_pos] execVM "scripts\shared\functions\F_StaticLine.sqf";

I can't help much without looking at the F_StaticLine script.

But, have a look at setWaypointStatements.

This will execute your script once the waypoint is reached/completed.


Also... I wouldn't want to be the poor souls jumping at 75 metres!!
