A10 Trigger spawn direction

Hey guys,

I am new to this forum. I have one simple problem(I hope):

="GroupA10 = CreateGroup West; A10CAS1 = createVehicle [""A10"", [(getMarkerPos ""A10Spawn1"") select 0,(getMarkerPos ""A10Spawn1"") select 1,100], [], 0, ""FLY""]; A10Pilot = GroupA10 createUnit [""USMC_Soldier_Pilot"", [0,0,1], [], 0, ""CAN_COLLIDE""]; A10Pilot moveInDriver A10CAS1; wp1 = GroupA10 addWaypoint [(getmarkerpos ""A10Target1""), 0]; wp1 setWaypointSpeed ""NORMAL""; wp1 setWaypointType ""SAD"";"

so I want this A10 to spawn to an other direction. but the problem is that it's always facing north. I don't know what to change. I already tried everything. I even tried to rotate the Marker. The thing is that I am one day on this issue. Can anyone help me? And I am sorry if there's already a post about this. No lies I searched 1 hour for this on google and here in the forum, but didn't find anything.

Thanks for help guys!

A10CAS1 setDir 50;
[/Code]

Although that will work for a static plane or vehicle but because a plane has velocity that won't change so it flies backwards or at least in the original direction.

Place this in a game logic or trigger to change direction rotate the marker.

GroupA10 = CreateGroup West;
A10CAS1 = createVehicle ["A10", [(getMarkerPos "A10Spawn1") select 0,(getMarkerPos "A10Spawn1") select 1,100], [], 0, "FLY"];
A10Pilot = GroupA10 createUnit ["USMC_Soldier_Pilot", [0,0,1], [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"]; 
A10Pilot moveInDriver A10CAS1; 
Mdir=markerdir "A10Spawn1";
A10CAS1vel = velocity A10CAS1;
A10CAS1speed = speed   A10CAS1;
A10CAS1 setVelocity [(A10CAS1vel select 0)+(sin Mdir*A10CAS1speed),(A10CAS1vel select 1)+ (cos Mdir*A10CAS1speed),(A10CAS1vel select 2)];
A10CAS1 setdir Mdir;
wp1 = GroupA10 addWaypoint [(getmarkerpos "A10Target1"), 0];
wp1 setWaypointSpeed "NORMAL";
wp1 setWaypointType "SAD";

Forgot about velocity :)

Need the functions module on the map for this one:

A10CAS = [getMarkerPos "A10Spawn1", [getMarkerPos "A10Spawn1", getMarkerPos "A10Target1"] call BIS_fnc_dirTo, "A10", WEST] call BIS_fnc_spawnVehicle;

A10CAS1 = A10CAS select 0;
A10CAS1 setPosATL [getPosATL A10CAS1 select 0, getPosATL A10CAS1 select 1, 100];

GroupA10 = A10CAS select 2;
wp1 = GroupA10 addWaypoint [(getmarkerpos "A10Target1"), 0]; 
wp1 setWaypointSpeed "NORMAL"; 
wp1 setWaypointType "SAD";

No need for math or velocity or anything like that. heh :)

Thank you guys for your help! I will try everything out when I am back. Nice to have such helpful people around.

Edit: Thank you Sel man it worked perfecto! :) And thanks to the two other guys for your help. Actually i didn't try kylanias, but will do later!

One last question! How can I make him careless? tried to change SAD but that didn't help. I wanna him fly through the map without reacting to enemy even when they shoot at him. Would be cool if you help me with this :)

You didn't take my advice last time! :)

A10CAS1 setBehaviour "CARELESS";

Add that line after the setPosATL line in my example or after the setDir Mdir line in F2k Sel's example.

I am such an idiot haha! Thanks for your help mate.

In case someone wants to do this in Arma 3 here is another way:

[start position, end/delete position, height, "speed", "vehicle", SIDE] call bis_fnc_ambientFlyBy;

Parameter(s):

_this select 0: ARRAY - The position where vehicle will spawn

_this select 1: ARRAY - The end position of the vehicle, it will be deleted here

_this select 2: NUMBER - The spawn and flight height of the vehicle

_this select 3: STRING - The speed the vehicle will move ("LIMITED", "NORMAL", "FULL")

_this select 4: STRING - The classname of the vehicle to spawn

_this select 5: SIDE - The side the vehicle belongs

[getMarkerPos "A10Spawn1", getmarkerpos "A10Target1", 50, "FULL", "B_Plane_CAS_01_F", WEST] call bis_fnc_ambientFlyBy;

Or using x and y positions

[[5500,7400-random 500,50],[0,4400+random 1000-random 500,100],50,"FULL","B_Plane_CAS_01_F",WEST] call bis_fnc_ambientFlyBy;
