inside woodandtrees .7z you can find :

2 x mission 1 putthefireout2 and woodcutter
1x watermisc ( bucket and some pool of water
1 x thromp_tree ( includes a tree and a firestarter module and a module to start bare tree field)
1 x Thromp_hsim_terrain ( very basic but good fps )

place missions in mydocs\toh(or toh other) profiles\missions
place addons in any @ folder of your choosing and start with usual -mod parameter to suite

Overview put fire out
a module called bob has been placed , this will create some trees in the area which will catch fire
your aim is to dip the bucket and douse fire with water , it will need a few trips, pls dip bucket below water to refill .

Overview Woodcutter
simply approach log and close the Hook , fly to anywhere and release , i hope to make a train or truck this weekend so it can drive of when full .

The duration of water falling out of the bucket seems long. I can 'drive around' and put multiple fires out during that time.

I filled the bucket, landed the helicopter, got out, and I am able to trigger "drop water" repeatably.
At least when you are done fighting fires you can take a shower.

[Thromp]

Haha ,
A nice bonus for a hard work .

I will fix this problem because i was let out of the Asylum early


To Do :
1 :
remove geometry when door is open and water escapes , so weight is reflected ,at this point im not sure if mass of model is calculated or its only setcargomass that will do it only, i guess scripted gradual mass is more realistic for pilot to compensate but hmm , i prefer simple life
2:
other delivery such as Hay to cows and Bricks to building site and Logs to Train or trucks for transport .
3:
video screen to show bucket for people who play 1st person only
4 :
If possible i look into better attach ,because at moment its in center and tips over , i wish to have better attach
5:
Community ideas where possible

well i made some progress on my List

First post Updated

Cool stuff Thromp! Once you are happy with the gameplay, you could also consider making this into a suite of scripted waypoints. That way people using your add-on can quickly make their own fire fighting scenarios. Not sure these waypoints are documented yet though

[Thromp]

Thanks for advice DnA ,
i think i saw something about it in the video on Facebook.
My intention now is just to release as a workflow because i may be gone for weeks at a time and this give others to play and mess whilst im gone something like a Live R&D i wish i had at my work not just play .

[Thromp]

Small update i made a tow-able trailer so when 8 * Logs are placed to it it will go.
soo much fun for so little effort i really like this game.

i will update download later today , just some problem with hook spin on end of rope.

[capt_morpheme]

How do i "start with usual -mod parameter to suite"?
thanks

[Thromp]

place a folder in your root call it @mycustom inside it place a folder and name it addons .
inside this folder put .pbo from download

then right click the shortcut to TOH on desktop and click properities then add -mod=@mycustom

example

"C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\Take On Helicopters\takeonh.exe" -nosplash -mod=@mycustom

this is for none steam , not sure how steam works sorry

[capt_morpheme]

Tanks, i'll give it a try.

Steam is actually the same, only:

(and excuse me if the english naming is off i got dutch here) But instead of clicking on the shortcut rightclick on TOH in the game menu in steam. Then go to properities and the start options (here the dutch fails) . Bascially here you can give custom command like loading mods

Little screen in dutch but atleast you see a bit what i mean


P.S i forgot . You can also get Six Updater and then run it without the steam GUI this way you can load unlimited MODS because the extra commandline is a bit short (or I load to many in ARMA II)
