Well, I am so sorry but YES. I need your help. But the issue is, when I tried this, I used an invisible helipad, and now, to be sure, I used a visible one. First problem, I am unable to put the helipad on rooftop, tried just adjusting height and copytoclipboard. Nothing.

Thanks man, let me try this on my own, and If not achieved then I'll ask you for help.

wow thanks. I tried what Surfer said, and nothing. The problema with unitPlay is.... I AM SHIT DRIVING HELIS!!! EVEN WORSE THAN THE AI....

Or use this wrokaround, kinda what I proposed you in your other post: https://www.dropbox.com/s/0hc8megkwhpg2mg/airport%2520attack%2520test.Stratis.rar It is a workaround, using one singe unit, and hiding it is completely optional, indeed it does not hide in vehicles... weird. But you will be able to establish order of destruction.... Take in count accurancy is not the same everytime you try, sometimes the helo diez in 1 second, other takes 10... Combine it with "hit" eventhandler and your results will be more or less the same on every try...

AAAAAHHHH DAMMIT, you are typing movincargo, and it's moveincargo.

Hello, I have interest on this. Andrews, you better use this in a script or on act of a trigger. Did it work? I suppose yes. Iceman, what about existing buildings. For example, I want scriped waypoints for several units in different groups on the same building, so doing it via editor would be extremely messy. So if this method Works, Placing a logic in the building, creating a waypoint position logic, and setWaypointHousePosition could be the solution. Thanks in advance

Thanks Kronzky for one of the most useful scripts around the secene. You may check my mission Capture & Hold, uses UPSmon, which is the son of this. You are on the credits, sorry for the typo, I will correct it ASAP.

Easy workaround, but the scene will be different every time probably. First: helis attack empty vehicles if they are enemy ones, I've seen this behaviour before. But if you want some "order of destroying" it is easy. First: check reveal, doTarget, doFire, those kind of commands in the comREf. Second, a script that has the list of things to be targeted, and setcaptive all them, except the first. Then order the heli to attack the first, once is destroyed, setcaptive false the second thing to destroy, repeat process with the third and so on...

No, you do not have to put unit's name in quotes. Don't know why is happening this, try naming the chopper with just "heli", maybe "helicopter" is a game's reserved expression....

Thanks a lot! In the old times this was in efectos option of triggers, but I could'nt be able to find it now.

Sorry, I've never used unitPlay, but I'm curious about....why not leaving the firing directly to the AI, tweaking it with reveals, dofire etc..?

Thanks cool. Understood. Just a suggestion, as you are leading the evolution of this script: could be a fine adition if the checked buildings were only those in the marker area. I suppose if a unit is ordered to move to a building pos already occupied, it will keep trying and in the surrounding buildingpos so maybe it is not a big problem.

Thanks man. A doubt: they are not ordered to completeley fill the building, isn't it? So, in order to keep units in a building (let's say the hospital), I should use lot's of groups of three man instead of few groups of eight. Am I right?

Hello, I have a question about the fortify option. Iv'e seen fortify units check for buildings in a certain área independent on the marker. So, I want to use UPSMon to defend one single building in a city. How this can be done?

Completely, it's like you found the "Justice for the Aplle Pie Party"... "esos separatistas / rojos" where did you worked? on an svastica pin Factory? Volkswagen in 1040? Even the Guardia Civil comment is completely out. I understand, it's what you've seen, and it's your opinión. But my answer to your question is NO, people from Castilla, generally speaking does not think they are superior to anybody. What people does not like is the typical reaction to spearatism (I dont give a shit).

Have you tried this? http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/setWaypointHousePosition

Hello, A question, when I used the steerable chute, the AI never got out the chute when reached land, so I had to make it with non steerable. Steerable is working now?

I could say the same for yours :) HKFlash lives in portugal, but it doesn not make him an spanish cultural advisor. First, the explanation of the taxi issue: you found such an idiot person that cannot see the differences between italian and catalonian. So that's some kind of clue of what an asshole you found. After that, the thing of being kicked out from a cab because you speak whatever language is almost paranormal (I'm not meaning you lie). I've never in this conversation tried to give you an "ideal image" of nothing. Indeed, the opposite. I said, thinking castilians are x or catalonians are y is one of the most stupid things you may say this week. And gets you closer and closer to the taxi driver you found. If you wanna make some judgment about a country, you may do it about their history, the food, the technology... Regarding Peral's invention I had to check the wiki, seems effectively it is not the first submarine boat, but it seems the first one with electric engine and with effective and practical use in warfare. I am not a Castilian Nationalist, I dont give a shit about nations. I dont know any castilian nationalist. Indeed there is not castilian nationalism... that thing does not exist. ---------- Post added at 11:53 ---------- Previous post was at 11:48 ---------- Sorry for the doublé post. It is not a catalán topic, it is a topic, and as every topic, a dumb and useless thing. "The most wide opinión"???? Man, I don't know in which snakepits you've been living in spain and with which kind of people you found, but let me tell you were extremely unlucky. I am not meaning I've never Heard such things, of course I have. But I could bet you a 1000 € if I ask about "catalonians" to the first guy I meet in Madrid, he won't say such things.

Totally agree.

Oh my god. I may consider myself castilian and let me tell you I don't know nobody with a useful brain thinking this.... I repeat: In castilla there are idiots, lots of them, but same as everywhere. @Ronin: Yes, I am Spanish, and neutral. Just because I don't give a shit on Independence, nation or whatever. Marc Márquez is a good kid, but not an example for this discussion. And, about the castilians, let me tell you something. Of course it is an opinion. It has been wide spreaded an anti catalonian opinion. The common folk follows it, but, not only in Castilla. Almost all around spain (Andalucia is not Castilla). As idiots are everywhere, those idiots like this way of thinking, becuase it is easy. But, just a question: who's the people who benefits from that? Can you imagine a best independentist slogan than "they, the rest, hate us"? "They are anti-us" wonderful! Works perfectly! All that I am saying is, independentist politicians are the same shit than the other ones, smell the same, and want the same: power. The difference is the way they use to achieve it. About the language, sorry, I laugh my ass off. What you haven't read is the same author discussion about the word "cojones" (bollocks): http://www.enorihuela.com/Pasatiempos/cojones.html Castilian is not specially aggressive. Its is the most richful language I know regarding bad words (agressive and non aggressive ones, insults, or not). In English almost everything is just fuck + word... Spanish is poetry compared to this. But here using a bad word does not mean aggression / hate (of course, when they are, we use LOTS of bad words). Example: we send something / someone to the shit. When is someone (Vete a la mierda) is aggressive, but, when is just lost, or far away, we say the same "se ha ido a la mierda". Also, we shit on everything, when it is something relative to you, it is aggressive (Me cago en tu padre: I shit on your father) but when is to something else, it is just an exclamation, a surprise, I am amazed, I'm hurt... lots of things. We shit even in God (do not do it in the street). Sorry about De la Cierva, you are right, I was thinking about submarine, invented by Isaac Peral, not helis...

Just another idea: Close to the enemies, in a good position, create a inf unit, leader of the heli, deleteweapons, setcaptive, allowdamage false, and, most important, hideobject. Dirty trick, but will order the heli to attack the inf, the player won't notice him (unless is very close, because he will hear the unit giving orders).

Beautiful. Just a suggestion. I never tried this but could worth it, and make this script the best arty script around the scene... Arty is useful when you fire to a bunch of enemies, not a single one. The find target script just picks the first alive ground unit in the array... So, each round prolly will target the same guy if it is still alive? Idea: create, via scripting a minitrigger that checks if there are more than x units around the targeted unit in certain radius (let's say 30 meters). If so, then YES, that's the target. Never made it, but could be woth a try.

Nah, radio triggers don't need size.

As the move waypoint is reached, if the chopper has conditions to proceed to the next wp, it will stop, and hover. The trick could be: place some move wp in 300 mts radius from transport unload wp, and use a cycle wp, just as in some other patrol, but break the cycle wp with a switch trigger for the RTB wp. Check the wiki about waypoints and the cycle waypoint. http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Mission_Editor:_Waypoints#Sentry Should do the trick.

Seems a game problem, I searched the forums and AI still has some problems driving vehicles in corners.
