Troop Transport...how?

[Eisprinzessin]

Hi!

I managed to create a working troop transport for the MI-8 (AI) from A to B. Embarking, Disembarking, all good.

Now I wanna fly this bird and suddenly the troop tont jump in my chopper (maybe the know about my piloting skilz...but hey....its an ORDER!)

I spawn, the spawn. I special wyipinted them to embark in my chopper. they come, and stop right beside of me, not jumping in. back doors opened, side door opened. My choper has a special waypoint option on the first SP Point to embark them as well.

What do i wrong? The tag of the choper is "transport"

Are you using the F10 Radio menu to tell them to embark? As you're a player you have to tell them to get in.

Another question related to this:

Can I see somewhere what the additional weight of the troops is, that u can make my fuel and weapons calculation?

 

And: is it possible that they board my AI wingman?

I believe they have default values per person; if you can do scripting you can set their individual mass as they enter. 

Regards Wing - yes of course, you can even 'share' a troop embarkation between multiple helos. Take a look at the UI in the embark dialog.
