You could make your own with a setdir loop (to make it spin) and an order to cut-power to the engines or simply kill the pilot

Here's one by Vektorboson:

UMMM im srry Metal Heart but im kinda new at this could you possible tell me where this goes? Sorry

First you gotta save the mission from the editor, directory will be created for it, something like ofp\users\username\missions\missionname.island. Save the script as tailrotor.sqs to that dir. Run it from trigger OnActivation field like this: [nameofheli] exec "tailrotor.sqs";

[demonhunter212 0]

If I do this correctly will I be able to use this script in any mission i want to?

And when you say an SQS file do you mean as in Notepad or something?

Thx Metal Heart but is there any possible way for the Helicoptor to blow up when it hits the ground?

Because everytime i use this script the Helicoptor spins then touches down and everyone is fine.

[Metal Heart 0]

you can use the random kills like [heliname, true, 5] exec "tailrotor.sqs"; (maximum of 5 passengers would be killed) or destroy it completely by adding _heli setdammage 1; to the end of the script.

[demonhunter212 0]

Ok thx but im really a noob do you want me to put that in any "On Activation" boxes or stuff like that or into the "Tailrotor.sqs" file?

when you say destroy the helicoptor completely do you mean as in its destroyed before it hits the ground or it blows up when it impacts into the earth.........Srry for all the hassle!

[Metal Heart 0]

Put the _heli setdammage 1; to the end of the tailrotor.sqs and the heli will explode when it hits the ground. You can also try what happens if you put it somewhere earlier in the script, it might prevent the rotation though.

[demonhunter212 0]

thank you so much!!!

[demonhunter212 0]

Is it possible for me to use this in any mission i want to other than having to drag the tailrotor.sqs file into each and everyone?

[Metal Heart 0]

Well of course. Just copy and paste the script to the mission directory and you can use it with exec.
