well in nile, does any1 have this problem?
i want an OH-58 Kiowa to follow a wp. i set the wpl up right, i know that. the radius is set to 20, the wps are connected, and i made the oh-58
pilots move to it and use the '58. i set the OH-58 to the wp list. but when it starts, the guys get in the helo, they take off, and then the helo
starts spinning in circles, not around the wps, but it starts flying randomly everywhere. it spins, then goes in a straight line, then spins again. it
also decreases and increases its altitude randolmly. can u guys help me? i remade a list and put a new heli in, but it still does it.
the radius is set to 20, the wps are connected, but still a no-go. this doesnt happen with any other heli iv made follow wps, its just the OH-58. so
can u guys help me?Eagle_Eye - 9-21-2006 at 05:01 PM
Sounds like the AI text file is set wrong..
Is this a mod, I don't recall seeing a Kiowa in JO or JOE?
Maybe they stuffed up the AI text file settings..
You can change the AI text file if you need to..> OldMan < - 9-22-2006 at 03:35 AM
I'm sure it is a wac-command- or radius- or WP list problem.MaStA_PAiN - 9-22-2006 at 09:02 AM
EE, its the IC mod. They just call it the OH-58 for short, but its really an OH-58 Kiowa. And to oldman, i double checked the radius and the WP lists,
but ill re-check it. I just think the staff of the IC mod wrote the OH-58 AI text wrong i bet, as EE said. thanks for the help guys.bigale - 9-23-2006 at 04:57 AM
well dont know about the heli but had a similar problem with people when i have left an if never() command out
for example
if ssndead(#) then
ssntowp(#.#)
endif
seems to go wrong at random
but
if never() and ssndead(#) then
ssntowp(#.#)
endif

excuse my n00b at NILE...
but isn't it:
if (#) and never() then .....?Eagle_Eye - 9-23-2006 at 07:57 AM
OK, I had a look at the versions of the helo..
They have changed the AI text file in each version so that it uses a different weapon..
Now, the problem is, in JO, this also effects the way AI use the Helo..and this Mod wasn't really aimed at AI, but Human Team Players, so it will be
ok for TDM/AAS etc..
You will have to play with using a different AI text file, there's a lot there to use.
Maybe they should have edited the .aip files...or used the BHD ones..you see what happens when Modders don't do their job properly..!!
Mind you, looks to me like these aips are from C4, seems even Nova can't be bothered creating new ones...LOL...

if (#) makes no sense... that would be like saying if 5 then trigger this event... you need to have a trigger... (#) is nothing...MaStA_PAiN - 9-23-2006 at 08:16 AM
thanks for the help guys. Hey EE, which aip should i use? and to bigale, heres the wac file:
If never() then //new event
ssn2ssn(Pilot ID),(OH58 ID)
ssnuse(pilotID)
endif
if never() then //new event
ssntowp(WPnum.)
thanks guys

er to many brackets or were you seperating it for me to read if so then please ignore
If never() then //new event
ssn2ssn(Pilot ID),(OH58 ID)// should be ssn2ssn(pilotid,oh58 id)
ssnuse(pilotID)
endif
if never() then //new event
ssntowp(WPnum.)
endifBrad.G - 9-29-2006 at 01:31 AM

as xareo pointed out (#) is incorrect...
if you had written
but isn't it:
if ssndead(#) and never() then .....?
i would reply with:
it doesnt matter if the "never" is placed before , or after the condition. it is read and interperated that if the event has fired before then do
nothing, otherwise fire the event.
for arguments sake you could write
if never() and ssndead(#) and never() and never() and never() and never() then...
it would still work, however how pointless it would be is not even open for "conversation. the point of it is, if "never" is in the condition,
regardless to its positioning, or how many times, the event will only fire once.
you may be wondering why im saying " how many times" you will find on some occasions using the OR operator, that "never" does not have the required
effect.
take two chairs, and script them like so
if never() and ssnride(xxxx) or ssnride(xxxx) then
text("you sat on the chair")
endif
now by reading this, you would think that the event would only fire once. you would be mistaken.
if you wrote
if never() and ssnride(xxxx) or ssnride(xxxx) and never() then
text("you sat on the chair")
endif
quite possibly , i havent tested it.
i just break it in to two seperate events
if never() and ssnride(xxxx) then
text("you sat on the chair")
endif
if never() and ssnride(cccc) then
text("you sat on the other chair")
endif
little off topic but heyMaStA_PAiN - 9-29-2006 at 03:04 AM
