How?!

No, this is not walking on moving objects. This method seeks to improve on Immersive HALO Jump, which also uses a static prop on which to walk, but moves players from and back to a flying aircraft:

  • Fly in a plane with player or AI pilot
  • Create a static prop 2 km behind the flying plane at the same altitude
  • When players "Stand up", they are moved to the same relative position on the static prop
  • Ramp animations and Jump lights are synced from the flying plane to the static prop
  • When players step off the ramp they are moved back to flying plane, and given the plane's velocity
  • Players' AI teammates also on the plane will eject at 0.5-second intervals, and will open their chutes at the same altitude as the player does

This means that for the jumpers, their position on the map or GPS will seem to "lag" behind the aircraft. It's best to have a marker tracking the aircraft so the jumpers can watch that instead. Ideally they are focused on the ramp and the jumplight, while a player jumpmaster is watching the map.

Other Notes
The Xi'an does not let you walk on it. Please let me know which other aircraft that let you walk on the ramp and cargo bay should be added.
Plan AI Flight can be used when in a cargo seat with an AI Pilot.
AI helicopters don't seem to want to fly at altitude, so those are player-pilot only.

Ramp and light control actions are restricted to group leaders and players in the pilot's group.

Looks like a great improvement and can't wait to try it out in a new mission.
