How to give Starforce21 multiple waypoints?

[paajtor 10]

I am at the start of the campaign, trying to locate Akula, and gathering evidence etc.

Razor-team has Starforce21 at it's disposal, very nice!

But when sending the pilot to a good position somewhere to the north (deep in enemy-territory), he simply flies over hostile villages, and gets his chopper damaged! :(

Is there a way, to make him take a safer approach?

I know...I can add markers on the map, but they're only for my personal use.

How can I give him multiple waypoints?

The only workaround I can find, is to give him a 1st "unload position" somewhere halfway the route - on a safe looking spot, but Razor stays on board, and I give him a 2nd spot - safe, and closer to my target...etc, etc...untill we reach our final extraction-zone.

Very time-consuming, and also very unrealistic.

use a hummer or APC, i only used starforce twice, once to get me to the mainland and once to bug out. tried using him inbetween but he wouldn't move. so much for having a chauffer assigned.

tbh me and my guys done a shed load of footwork. game lasted longer, more things to see and enemy to kill ;)

(mods, sry for posting in wrong forum)

So I guess there's no other way - yet?:(

Travelling by foot is also a hell of alot safer - I remember taking my AI buddies for a spin in the HMMV in the Manhattan mission.... We were made into instant AKM fodder without the gunner having a chance to return fire. On foot however we laid waste to all opposition.

Hmmm, I might try that approach, thx guys.

Got a question: in the Armory, you get these "challenges", 1 of them being hunting for food.

Suppose I take Razor out for a long walk, do I actually have to hunt some, after being isolated from resupplies for days on end?

Weapons and ammo should be no problem.

i completed the campain and it unlocked zip, zero, diddlysquat, nothing in armory, i even went about each mission the long way to get more satisfaction out of it.

Colt, If you still want to play around in the armory, read here.

ctrl+F found nothing for ArmoryPoints

[paajtor 10]

You're looking in the right place, mate?

It's in your C:\Documents and Settings\>yourwindowsaccount<\My Documents\ArmA 2 Other Profiles\>yourplayername<-folder.

The entry is near the bottom of the file.

Just hit Ctrl+F, and type armory [Enter]

anyway, my question about hunting in campaign seems to be a nOOb-question, since I get no further answer LOL. :D

Would be cool, though.

yes mate its not there.... or wait do i have to actually try a wassit out first for it to write the initial string in there?

[paajtor 10]

Yeah, could be the case..just fire up the Armory, and do a few of the 1st challenges.

It's really no big deal, like "reach X location within 30secs", means you gotta run a bit, that's all.

Or hunt a few cows or rabbits, stuff like that.

that worked.. took me almost 2 hours to get 5 points. the challenges are a little retarded. reach 60 in a bmp-2? lol doubt it. skeets with a pistol? lmao

[paajtor 10]

yeah, that's why I searched for a way to edit the armory-credits :)

And as far as I can tell, it doesn't affect my running campaign.
