Player (empty) helo extracts ai fire team script?

[Pappy60 10]

I am new so please excuse me, I have searched a lot on this and yes there are many extraction postings but this one is a bit unique.

I have several empty helos, (MP) and an un-attached ai fire team located at 056022 , I want to grab any empty helo and fly (player is pilot) to their location and extract them.

I have a trigger at the LZ that makes the AI fire team move to a "get in" waypoint and they do move, no problem but they do not get in the helo.

So I have read that I need a "LOAD" waypoint for the helo and need to sync the LOAD wp to the "Get In" wp. The problem is that I cannot set a waypoint on an empty helo. AND there are 4 possible helos that could fly this task.

Do I need a script that gets the helo name (do empty helos have names?) and then tells the ai to moveincargo of helo_name based on a trigger?

I am a bit lost on how to do this....all the other extraction posts seem to be centered around an AI helo, mine is about a live pilot in an empty helo extracting known but unattached AI

Hope this is understandable.........

You'd want to assignAsCargo and orderGetIn instead of moveInCargo. moveIn will 'teleport' them into the helo, probably not what you're looking for.

You are correct, teleporting them would be bad, forgive my noobiness but could I set the trigger to [THIS] assignAsCargo [FireTeam1] ?

But I am thinking I need to know the name of the helo and include it in the statement?
