the_shadow 0 Posted April 13, 2004 i could use a fast roping script, anyone know where to find one??? or a fast insertion script for my choppers, this meaning that the chopper just tuchdown and everyone jump off more or less simultaneous, it would be nice if the chopper flies at around 0.5 - 1m altitude when unloading the cargo... i´m in quite big need of this for some missions i´m making... fast insertion would be the best i guess, anyone know where to find one (looked through OFPEC but didn´t find one) im useless at scripting myself, that´s why i´m asking...

the_shadow 0 Posted April 13, 2004 hm, i´m either stupid or blind couse i cant find any fast insertion script... what i want is simply a script that makes the chopper desend to about 0.5-1m altitude AGL (above ground level) and make all units inside disembark quickly... and then fly of to the next WP.... EDIT: it would be nice if it works with several chopperas at a time, for example, 3 UH60s make a quick unload of their units and then fly of this without having to start the script for each chopper, just for the whole group of choppers....

the_shadow 0 Posted April 13, 2004 if i got that right it will make the shopper fly at an altitude of 0.8m? and it will make the units eject with a 0,2 second timedelay between? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the_shadow 0 Posted April 13, 2004 to be sure that this workes, does the script make the chopper desend the next 150m immidiatly after the script is triggered or does it make the shopper to start descending 150m before it reaches it´s next wp? if case 1 i have to time the execution of the script....

the_shadow 0 Posted April 14, 2004 if i got 4 groups in the chopper that should unload at the same spot.... how should i do then? as i understand this script works fine with 1 group Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the_shadow 0 Posted April 20, 2004 ok, i have made some changes to the mission and decided to use the script originally posted here (Snypirs) i even figured out how to make it work... now i got another problem, when the chopper (a UH60) is at the landing zone, he either brakes hard and smashes the tail in the ground (the chopper is destroyed) or accelerates straight in to either the ground or the forrest... i wonder if someone with scripting knowledge can take a look at the script and figure out why??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the_shadow 0 Posted April 20, 2004 have tested it over and over again.... the damn chopper keeps crashing every single time however i do... it starts by slowing down and when it´s about 1m over the ground it accelerates and crashes right into the ground (if it hasn´t already crashed during the braking) i think this is becouse it knows about the enemy, i guess i could have fixed this if i knew anything about scripting, but i dont so... can anyone please fix this? i just want the damn chopper to land and quickley drop of my men and THEN go to an orbit pattern provideing aerial covarage.... (ok, atlest make a quick dropoff and then get the hell outta there) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the_shadow 0 Posted April 21, 2004 yeah, ive figured out that part, now HOW the heck do i get the darn thing to shut the frakin lights off? since it´s an night time insertion i dont want the chopper to fly with the lights on since it´s that close to the enemy... it´s bad enough that they´ll hear it...

AliMag 0 Posted April 21, 2004 Hi, I use snypir's script all the time. Never had any trouble with it. There are 2 things to remember: - The script should be called at a MOVE wp - The driver (pilot) behaviour should be set to CARELESS Otherwise the chopper's behaviour is unpredictable. The version that I use is 1.6 and comes with another script called stop.sqs Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the_shadow 0 Posted April 21, 2004 well, thats the same as me, and it works, now i just have to get the chopper to turn the god damn lights off.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
