Cannot place invisible FARP on heli pads (SYR map)

Recommended Posts

I don't know if this is specific to the Syria map (and I couldn't find a forum to submit bug report for that particular map) but when I try placing invisible FARPs on several of the helicopter pads the ME pops a dialog informing me the terrain is too steep.

I don't have any insight into the map tech but should it even be necessary to put down invisible FARPs on heli pads?

(this particular heli pad is in YB16)

Hi you will not be able to place a farp on top of a helipad as it is elevated.

Ok, unless I misunderstand something...

  1. Heli pads does not allow rearm/refuel without adding an iFARP
  2. iFARPS cannot be added to elevated platforms, such as those heli pads

... this means elevated heli pads cannot really be used as helicopter bases during operations (other than just nice looking places to start/land from), right? I can accept that, and work around it. Just looking for clarity. 🙂
