helicopter training

Recommended Posts

I'm not sure what i am missing. All the other training was easy, expert marksman, sniper, etc.

but with the basic helicopter course, i get in the chopper, wait for him to say checklist is ok start the engines

i choose start engine and immediately it drops the fuel to 0 and i get kicked from the chopper, then it says engine damage.

i have tried the other options as well, before choosing engine on, in different combos.

it's gotta be something really simple i am just missing i imagine - thanks in advance.

yeah it happened in the combat training as well, have not tried it in a mission yet. am getting the feel for SP before i go into MP again - i didn't do horrible just kinda confused.

I get in the chopper, wait for him to say checklist ok start engine, and i click action, select engine on, and the fuel drops , i get kicked and fail. critical engine damage or something to that effect. happens after a few seconds in basic, immediately in combat,

i have 1.16b and the ACE mod installed, could either of those be causing it? it is ACE 1.09.

thanks again.

I don't know if the bug's coming from a mod...

I doesn't trained, because I did it on ArmA2 and OFP...

So try training yourself on the editor ;)

i had the same problem when using ace and trying to take off you, should try to do the helicopter training in vanilla ArmA and then it should work just fine

I used to get an error all the time in the Chopper Tutorial even in vanilla Arma. For me, the officer would just stand there and not enter the chopper. I also got bugs in another tutorial, the nade one, IIRC.

My problem with the helo training is that the trainer simply refuses to get onboard! hahahaha!

He will get himself stuck outside the blackhawk and never gets on in the first place so there is no why I can proceed.

It's a bug - the trainer won't enter the chopper with you. If you run away a couple hundred feet he will sometimes get un stuck, where you can then get into the chopper. Otherwise restart the training and he will get into the chopper. Took me awhile to figure out what was wrong here too!
