Problem with helo following WP

Post by The Texican-PG- »

I have an Apache helo with 2 man crew (125-7 pilot & 124-7 co-pilot) that attach okay but when they get to the first WP it just circles the first WP instead of following the path (looped WP).

Event 6
triggers

Group 3 has been destroyed and Group 4 has been destroyed

actions

redirect SSN 4 (Pilot) to waypoint 125-7 (Apache)
redirect SSN 5 (Co-Pilot) to waypoint 124-7 (Apache)

Event 7
triggers

SSN is within area 13 and group 4 has been destroyed

actions

redirect SSN 7 (Apache) to waypoint 4-0


I've tried deleting all the waypoints and relaying them in case I goofed but still not acting correctly. I currently have both pilot & co-pilot as blind as I'm still testing everything.

Check to see if waypoints are numbered correctly.

Make pilots and the helo blind and indestructible.

These are the settings I have for the Apache helo that will/should be on patrol in a looping set of waypoints.

Bubba, sorry I wasn't awake when you sent the email with offer of helping via Team Viewer. I sleep whenever I can these days. Go in to be tested Monday morning for the dreaded caronavirus.

Don't use Layers - they don't work that well in COOPS.
Call or message me at 407-797-6171 when you can get online with teamviewer.
I finished work early today so I'm at home.

I only use layers to help me when building a map, I didn't know it affects the map play.

They don't affect the map but are not that accurate when you're trying to work between layers . . . objects mysteriously move from one layer to another and make the process confusing.
