r1 is the leader of the group that's supposed to be moved in the plane's cargo. Plane spawns properly and seems to head to the waypoint, however the sqaud will not get in. Another weird thing is that the script reaches the waitUntil {bDrop} regardless of the error, but again the squad does not get moved in.

I've also had a similar script work perfectly but with an editor-placed plane+waypoints+triggers, and the moveInCargo placed in each soldier's init line.

tried add assignAsCargo before moveInCargo ?

[galzohar 31]

assignAsCargo gives the same kind of error that moveInCargo gives, and is not needed according to my tests with an editor-placed aircraft. Something seems to be wrong with (_rUnits select _i) but I just don't get what. Printing it out as a hint gives the name of the unit, so it's definitely a unit and not an array, as opposed to what the RPT says.

From the function help. :) It returns an array.

Returns:

Array:

0: new vehicle (Object).

1: all crew (Array of Objects).

2: vehicle's group (Group).

plane1 select 0 = the actual unit spawned. That's why you're getting the rpt error that it is getting an array instead of an object. :)

[galzohar 31]

Yeah, that seems to be it, thx. Didn't realize the array comment was referring to plane1.
