Oil Rigs? where in editor?

[Graham01]

Hello,
I'm trying to put together a simple mission with a few ships and an oil rig.
I go into the oil rig part of the mission editor and cant find one in the object placement lists.
Does anyone know where they are/how to place one?

Many thanks.
Graham.

Hi,

There is actually an oil rig placed already in the centre of the Oil Rig map - it's just you can't see it in the editor.

If you place a helicopter on the map and put the following in its init line...

this setpos [1267.3,1304.83,100];

the helicopter will be directly above the rig when the game starts.

Checking through the configs, they don't seem to have provided a model to allow us to place the oil rig.

Thanks Jedra.
I'll have a look at that today.

OK. Got that bit. But get a cold start in the air and crashes.
Sorry to be a pain.....How do I start in the air engines on or on the rig?

Thanks again.
Graham.

In the helicopter panel. Change the "state" or "statut" don't know.. Form "In formation to "In the air". Something like that. Enjoy
