ANYONE out there use the Mission Wizard?

If so, could you explain to me:

1) How the UAV support is used. I can call them up, but have no apparent control or view from their cam. Does it just place enemies spotted on the map? You just call it up, and that's all you do?

2) Do you LEFT click on the map to select artillery, airstrike and UAV targets (when using them as a support request)? It seems to work SOME of the time, but often the X on the map is in a completely different spot than I clicked.

3) Once you've boarded a huey, brought on via the Transport support request, do you select your destination on the map (again with a left click)?

Hope someone out there can finally clear some of this up. I'm figuring some things out finally, but in general it seems kind of random.

1.) All it does is spot units around you.

2.) When I call stuff in I have the map open with my cursor on the position that I want it on. It tends to use the place where your cursor is at. I don't normally need to click but sometimes I do.

3.) Same as above, once your in it will switch to transport active. I need to click more frequently on this one but sometimes it is where my cursor is at. If you want the helicopter to follow a specific route you can keep telling it to drop you off different places as it approaches the first part. So if you want to approach the target from behind (East) when you are West of it. Tell the helicopter to drop you off to the south of the target. Before it gets there tell it to drop you off west of it. It is kind of like waypoints.

And hello yet again! Thanks for all your responses tonight!

1) And puts them on the map, right?

2) Ah! That might be it... Not a click, but just where the cursor is. That might explain why some X's are WAY off! I'll have to experiment with that...

3) Ya? I tried that in tonight's session, but it seemed like it only let me pick the one destination. Once again, the randomness! Okay, I'll try that again. If it works like you say, that would be great.

1) Yep

3) I managed to make it work when I was using it the mission editor. I would think it would work in the wizard too. You just have to keep going to the communication menu and changing the destination.
