How to call for medical assistance ?

[Xtreme1989 10]

Hi guys,

Can you tell me how I can call support for an ambulance (or a fuel, rearm truck) ? I think it's quite simple to do this but i'm still a noob @ editing :p

Here's a situation as my English is not so good.

@ The airport

We accidentally shot the civilian doctor .....

We need an ambulance asap !! So, I take my radio and call for medical assistance (5 - 1 - 2)

Some kind of error pops up :confused: ?

Sadly, no medical assistance arrived and the doctor died due severe injuries and we had to hide the body somewhere in the forest :(

Editing map

Communication window1 (5-1)

Communication window2 (5-1-2)

Do I need to sync the ambulance to me or ?

Oh and btw, I discovered some kind of error when i try to drag the doctor ... Drag bug ?

(I'm using latest version 1.02.58134)

Thanks guys ! (Arma2 is so much fun, I enjoy the editor more than the campaign :D Especially now with that Secop module, that's way cool !)

Read up on the Support waypoint. Calling for support will only work if the mission contains support units with active support waypoints, and they have to have a valid support asset (repair, rearm, refuel, or medic) in their group.

After some reading and testing, this is actually very easy to do :) Gonna test some more :p

I placed a waypoint on the support unit 'Support'

A little summary

If you want to have support trucks (Ambulance, Fuel, Repair, Rearm)

- Place the Units on the map and place a waypoint on them called 'SUPPORT'

- If you need their support use the radio : 5-1-....

You need to create the module called Battlefield Clearance and sync it to the civilian and player.

Thank you ;)

Best to just shoot the doc and leave his body in the woods. Chernarus is a dangerous place and who knows what happens in conflict zones... *whistles*

How did you fix that drag issue in the screenshot? I occasionally drag 'air' as well, even with the battlefield clearance synced.

Hi Bleh131,

I connected 3 First Aid modules to me and the civilian and this seemed to do the trick :) I think you have to do this for everyone who you want to drag :) Btw, wouldn't it be cool if we could drag them and load them onto a truck or something :p

@kylania, roger :D
