Isaioux2x 0 Posted January 10, 2004 I found an empty helicopter. I was the officer so I orderd all my men into the back of the helicopter (CH-47D) excluding one how I made the pilot. I tell the pilot to move to a certain location. However, is there anyway I can tell him to go higher? Ordering everyone to eject at a low altitude doesn't work to well ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gollum1 0 Posted January 10, 2004 No, sorry. You should still be able to parachute without getting killed. But if you are playing in the editor, you can put into a helicopter's/plane's init field: <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">this flyinheight 100 100 can be anything, the default height is 50 (?) but 100 is pretty high.

Isaioux2x 0 Posted January 10, 2004 Ahh, I was playing in a mission that a friend had not completed. And the helicopter was always so low. But thanks. Another problem i'm having is. Two are three people always die. Their chutes turn black. Even though at this drop. I had ejected first without dying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shadow 6 Posted January 10, 2004 If you order all your men to eject simultaneously some will die (get hung up in eachother). I have a role of thumb to eject at a minimum height of 80 meters. If the AI-chopper fly slow then the mission-designer set the AI-pilot's waypoint-speed to slow. There's actually only two speeds to select: Slow= slow(around 70km/h for choppers), maintaine formation Normal= max speed of slowest aircraft in group, maintaine formation Fast= max speed, does not maintaine formation (slower aircrafts will not be taken into consideration and therefore left behind) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Isaioux2x 0 Posted January 10, 2004 If I were using notepad to edit this mission. Where would I enter the init setting to make it fly higher and what would it look like? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smogmorph 0 Posted January 11, 2004 If I were using notepad to edit this mission. Where would I enter the init setting to make it fly higher and what would it look like? Arrr, don't open that book ;). Un-PBO it to your User/Missions folder and add the line Gollum mentioned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Placebo 29 Posted January 12, 2004 I think this can probably be answered simply by doing a search in mission editing but I'll just move it over there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
