[todayskiller 10]

Hey I have one question, in map editor. When I try to place a Destoryer or w/e its called, It never floats on water? it always is "sunk" when I click preview. Is there a way to fix this? Am I doing something wrong? thanks a bunch

this setPos [(getPos this select 0),(getPos this select 1),XXX];

XXX being height, fiddle with the number. put this code in the init line of the ship to set its height above the water.

I use XXX as 0, that works fine. 0 is waterlevel.

true, but the setpos code is still very useful, especially if u want to place helos etc on the ships.

I placed a fishing boat and attatched a ship to it. Then I placed a helo on the ship, tested it by previewing it spawning near it and it was there, great. Then I did my whole mission and when I get to the ship the helo's gone. Happens everytime, the helo's there if I spawn near it but gone if I do the mission from the start a long ways away from the ship. Wouldn't have a clue why.

It probably slips off the back over time, there also seems to be a bug with the back portion of the frigate and the destroyer whereby a helo will fall into the back of the ship as if it hasn't been defined as a solid surface.

ah ok, hopefully they'll fix it in the next patch
