Changing waypoints in mission help

[ScEBlack1]

Hi all

 

I would like to just change a waypoint or two in some missions so it takes me in route mode a new direction, is this info what I am looking for on page 7-73 of the manual under "adding and editing map points (Directly mode)" ?

 

Also can this be done on multiplayer missions when online as well? I just need to be pointed to the correct page in the manual, it can be a bit daunting with the many features for waypoint/route editing pages, thanks all.

Everything you can do in singleplayer you can also do in multiplayer, as far as navigation goes.

 

Note that you're probably going to have better success using the PVI-800, since that thing actually talks to the rest of the chopper. ;)

Thanks EtherealN

 

I just want to change a waypoint or two to move me around a bend instead or subvert a particular location, I watched wags Abbris video and I think I know how to do this now, pretty simple it seems. Thanks.

This is easy unless I misuderstand. With the mission up in Editor simply click the Waypoint you wamt to move. The entire route will become highlighted. Now drag the waypoint to where you want it and "SAVE".

 

Best wishes,

Thanks mate, but, I meant in cockpit during ramp up for the ABRIS, not in the mission editor.

Hey jessi1,

 

if you're on the ramp, it's actually easier to do it as described in section 7-50 "Editing a waypoints location". That way you can move waypoints around without unloading the current plan. Keep in mind that when you change waypoints in ABRIS, it does not effect the route that's stored in the PVI-800. You'd have to edit those coordinates manually to sync.

Thanks ReOrdain exactly what i was looking for, yes I know about the PVI-800 which I normally dont use for waypoints, I like to not use route mode incase I need to evade quickly I dont have to remember to turn it off which has happened before, thanks.
