Correct me if I&#39;m wrong.[/QUOTE]<span id='postcolor'>
Sharp to notice&#33; ***

My question was: "(...) to do that at about 1,2 revolutions per second?"

And that&#39;s not possible with the "revolve" animation. The revolve animation rotates once per magazine emptied, to be used for a revolver. (duh...)


Oh, and the "REVOLVINGSPEED" does nothing. I just made that one up myself, tried to see if it had any effect, with different values. (unsurprisingly none whatsoever)



I also tried to find something in the CPP for the Vulcan, but again... nothing useful.

Ok this is the config from GFX&#39;s Minigun - has very fast revolving animation - does aything in this helps or it it much the same as vulcan?

Is that the minigun from the bunker pack 5? If it is, then you have a weird definition of "fast". It revolves once per 100 shots&#33; It&#39;s VERY slow&#33; At least it revolves.

Note: Make the radius big enough so it includes the pilot or copilot seat area for the respective sides.[/QUOTE]<span id='postcolor'>

Hmm animations can&#39;t be triggered in-flight anyway so y really bother?[/QUOTE]<span id='postcolor'>

True, but the reason the radius includes the pilot and copilot is to be able to close the doors once you board the helo. one way of getting the doors to open during flight would be to script them and use the Fire command to trigger a script inside the pbo.

Hey, that would be a neat idea. Change the gunner or commander into a loadmaster that can operate the doors.

All you need then, is a script that will disable the getin and getout when the doors are closed.

Now this is thinking Why not script the getin getout commands to open and close the doors BEFORE the animation to getin/out takes place. Don&#39;t know if it could be done, but it is worth experimenting with.
