picking up downed players

[Deimos]

would be fun if we could pick up other players in the battlefield (and gain some points). but even if another player is walking to my waiting choppa, i cant see him.

There’s a plug in script/mod called CSAR that enables that.

it has to be run by whoever is hosting the mission, but it works really well.

Key things it does are:

- any player who’s bailed out, safely lands AND doesn’t respawn generates a mission that is available via the F10 menu

- if you fly a suitable chopper, open the F10 menu and you can choose to have a go at picking up a downed pilot

- the generated mission gives you the location of the downed pilot and also a homing frequency

- when you’re close to the downed pilot, he’ll fire a flare

- go pick him up, jobs a good un

It’s a brilliant script that I add into most of my missions.

ok, i´ve played that mode allready and its great.

But i mean if a downed player walks around, no one else can see him doing that. From their fiew he is still standig where he bailed out or landed on his feet.

Does it work for single player, AI downed pilots?

[Mr_sukebe]

I believe so.
