I'm learning now how the Mission Editor works, but will apreciatte some help doing some things I can't figure by myself.

 

1- How can I make a AI helicopter/plane loops between two waypoints?

 

2- How that same helicopter/plane of before, continue with his waypoints once a trigger condition is met?

 

3- Make a ground group "2" appear once group "1" is destroyed?

 

4- Make that group "2" appear in a random location?

 

thats it at the moment, hope a expert can help.

 

Thanks!!

I don't understand anything in russian except Davai Davai!

1- Use a "switch waypoint" waypoint action on the last waypoint in the loop to make them go back to the first waypoint in the loop. Alternatively, use the "Switch Waypoint" triggered action. I think it's under Commands-> Switch Waypoint. When you want this action to occur, you run it with the AI TASK trigger action.

 

2- Tell them to orbit at the waypoint you want them to hold at with a orbit waypoint action. Set a stop condition on the orbit waypoint action of either a flag going true ("IS USER") or a Lua condition (return <lua condition>). Now, when you want them to continue with their waypoints, you just set the flag equal to true or make the Lua condition not nil or false.

 

3- Start a group unactivated at mission start. When you want them to appear, use the group activate trigger action

 

4- not possible

 

Please study the GUI manual, it covers all of this and more.

Another, possibly easier, option for number 1 is to use Race track orbit.

 

Race track orbit will make the aircraft orbit in a race track pattern between two waypoints.

 

The GUI manual will explain it further.
