<span style='color:red'>[Not Answered]</span> #1: I have two blackhawks, and two littlebirds. For the first and second BH I have seperate squads (1 team leader and 6 men with him) and for the first and second littlebird I have seperate squads with like 1 leader and 4 members). I want the squads next to each chopper (all 4) to enter there blackhawk/littlebird there near,

Now I want them to take off and go to there destination and do the following below.

The first two littlebirds I want them to land and have the squads disembark, while the BH parachutes its troops at the littlebirds location infront of them. Then I want the the littlebirds to take off following the BH.

#1: Yes you can do it using waypoints, triggers and scripts. To sit here and type it out is pointless. You need to find a good Tutorial on these things.

#2: Yes though it would be called a "Cut Scene" if it doesn't start at the beginning. You do it the same as an Intro but call it with a trigger and a variable.

#3a: The answer to 3a is #4.

#3b: Read the Wiki about the "Description.ext" The resapwn rules are very clear.

#5: Not that I know of.

#6: The answer is yes if someone makes a editor update.

#7: Answered this in 3b.

#8: You use a trigger with text and a blackout. Then you need to call a script to accellerate time in the trigger. Then make another trigger with the time out set to what you want and use the "black in"
