nah it doesn't as I'm not trying to actually perform an extraction

Set the final MOVE waypoint well out of the Area of Operations then in that waypoint's On Act field put the following:

{deleteVehicle _x} forEach crew h1; deleteVehicle h1;

h1 = name of the helo.

@Szadowsz:

And that has to be done with scripted waypoints? Or any method would suffice?

I mean it`s actually pretty easy to do it.

If you delete it anyway mid-air, it doesn`t matter where you do it, only important thing is that it`s far enough from the player.

So try.

_x=getpos player select 0;

_y=getpos player select 1;

_chopper domove [_x+3000,_y+3000];

waituntil {unitready _chopper};

{deletevehicle _x} foreach crew _chopper;

deletevehicle _chopper;

EDIT: kylania had the solution while i was typing hehe

i can't actually creat a waypoint using the editor as i am usin a fastrope addon (norrins i think) that gets messed up if you add in waypoints afterwards.

i was just wondering how to write a script that would do basically that

Just override it brutely then!

for [{_i=0}, {_i<count waypoints GROUPNAME_OF_YOUR_CHOPPER}, {_i=_i+1}] do

{

deleteWaypoint [GROUPNAME_OF_YOUR_CHOPPER, _i]

};

and then either domove the thing or add a scripted waypoint with addwaypoint

Put a marker where you want it to delete and use doMove to make it go there. Once it's close maybe have a trigger to delete it or just let the script do that.
