As the title says, having problems with the Same sites.
They aim over the heli and are messed up.
Is there a Script I can use, or make to make them hit you but not be to op?

You could use aircraftkiller's SAM site. I can tell you how it works. Could you get on n00bstories IRC?

MDB_Base_Defense_Vtol_Only is Superior to JFW_Base Defense

Attaching MDB_Base_Defence_VTOL_Only to the SAM site will work. In addition, make sure to modify the ammo of the SAM site you are modifying. You will need to check "IS Tracking" in order to make it actually useful.
And while you are doing that, change the firing sound to Sam_Fire_1 found in Buildings-->Sam Site
Also add the Idle Sound found in the same area to the SAM site preset.
I probably should make a video...

Quote: | Release notes for modders
Due to a bug in the code, if you have edited presets (objects.ddb or temp presets) using a scripts build posted since the 13th of January 2012, the Sight Arc field is possibly incorrectly set on any Soldier, Vehicle or Sam Site presets in that presets file. To fix this, you will need to go through every vehicle, soldier or Sam Site preset in the preset file(s) you have edited (this affects all presets in those files, not just the ones you edited) and check that the SightArc (which is in degrees) is a whole number, is >= 0 and is <= 360. Most of the time the number will be something like 359.xxx instead of 360 so determining what to set it to should be easy. The best way to identify anything with a bogus SightArc is to copy the .ddb file into the same folder as ddbedit (the new version from 4.0 beta 5) then drag it over ddbedit.exe. Then press the "dump" button which will create a text dump of the ddb file. Open this and search for SightArc which will display the value as it would be seen in LE. You can then use this to make sure the numbers are correct and fix them if needed.

Just sayin'. That's quoted from the TT beta 5 release post and sounds an awful lot like the problem I believe robbyke was posting about a couple of months ago (sam sites shooting way above the target they're aiming at).

The SightArc field has nothing to do with shooting angles and is related to whether an object can see another object for target selection purposes.

Actually, you were just writing. You didn't say that. If you said it, you'd post a link of yourself saying "just sayin'", but then that would be entirely redundant because we'd hear you speaking while you said "just sayin'". In the same vein, were you to adapt that colloquialism into writing and write "just writin'", it would be as redundant as saying something to someone just to say "just sayin'" at the end - or beginning - of the statement.

lets try it then
the samsite model doesnt work properly
all the samsite presets aim above the veh theyre shooting at (vtol AND ground)
if i use another object and change the model to SS it gives the same problem (making me conclude its the model?)
ive tried to change object tilt min and tiltmax
ive tried sight arc
ive tried using other objects and set the model to SS
ive tried different weapons
It worked on 3.4.4 and RR distr can confirm that

Here are my script settings:
(flarak,"JFW_Base_Defence_VTOL_Only","1,300,10");
Used this code line for years and it always did work.
Edit: Attached a screenshot.
Bückstabü!

Stock Renegade does NOT use tracking missiles. That is why, in the post I posted above, I said to modify the ammo so that it tracks, that way it is useful against aircraft. Other wise, the aircraft would need to be in one place in order to be useful.
