Help: Stopping an IA plane at the waiting point

[jef32]

Hi

Until now, I didn't try to stop a rolling IA plane on the taxiway, but I would wish to stop a IA plane at the waiting point when I'm on final approach. After having create trigger zones, I've tried " desactivate group" when conditions are OK but the IA plane vanish immediatly in this case. IA planes aren't in the list of the "stop group" command. Only ground vehicles are in this list. So how can I do ?

I don't think it is really an option, but perhaps you can try:

Deactivating a group, like you figured it out, despawns units. But perhaps try "UNIT AI ON/OFF" instead. I am not sure how well that works though.

Or perhaps try it by spawning a unit close to or on the runway, making the AI believe the runway is blocked.

You know what ? Your answer remember me what I've done in fact in some other missions and I didn't remember. A long time ago, I'd downloaded an unofficial mod with some animals and I'd used a little chick from this mod ( not visible from far) to prevent an IA plane to taxi during my inertial alignment. Thanks to remember me what in fact, I've already done, a long time ago.
