DarkFire Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 The big squares that appear in some training missions that the pilot has to fly through - how are they placed using the editor? Are they a placeable object or are they placed using lua scripts? Finally, can their size be changed?

Grimes Posted March 4, 2016 Posted March 4, 2016 They are called "helper gates" and to my knowledge you can't change their size. They are created two ways, both are actions in the trigger list: Show Helper Gates for Unit, the gates correspond to the position of waypoints assigned to the specified unit. So you will have to have a ton of waypoints. When the unit passes through a gate the specified flag is set to true or increased by one, I can't remember which. This method is more commonly used because it is easier to work with. Show Helper Gates: Defines the position of the gate in the world x, y, z coordinates plus aspect. The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world.

It's a pity they can't be re-sized as they're a bit small...
