Hi,

I recently played a mission that started with men being paradropped from UH-60.
But whenever I try to get them to do the same with one of my missions the UH-60 always lands before they get out.

Can anyone help me by telling me how I setup the waypoint/command?

Thanks for any help you can give me!

I dunno wich way is easier. To me my way is easier cuz Im not good at scripting.
I just make a trigger that activates when a chopper flies into an area and it sets a1(of course it doesnt have to be a1) to true.
Then I make a trigger for each soldier in the chopper with the condition a1(or what U chose to name it), and in the On Activation field you type:
uassignvehicle SoldierName; SoldierName action ["Eject",Choppername]

Supposing your a total moron and you don't know what the soldiers name are OR how to name them, how would you do it?

(a mate of mine wants to know......whos a moron)

When youre placing a soldier on the map, you can see a little field called name in the grey box (under the are where youre selecting which sort of unit you will place on the map.)

Just write a pretty tecnical name there (no blanksteps) and then the unit have a name.

You have to be in advanced mode in the editor to give the units name I think. You can switch to advanced mode in the top right corner of the editor.
A tip for new editors is to check out the tutorial wich you can find in the readme that comes with the game, thats how I started.
