I have finally go the helipad scripts working on maps now after a few minor problems i had but i am now writing a tutorial on how to use the script. I have made short video of the script in action. you can get it at http://modx.renevo.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=142 . It's only a shart video showing you what happens when you buy an flying vehicle. It doesn't create them at the WF/Airstrip but it sends them to the helipad to be built. I know a few of you are wanting this tutorial but it will be best to let me finish it in detail because if i was to release it only written in brief then i can assure you that anyone who uses it will come back with loads of questions. Thats why i'm going carefully through each steaps and inclusing pictures to make it as fool-proof as possible.

I had to stop my AAF video to watch this Mad but it was worth it that looks to be yet another good feature avalable to future mod...

I must say the way the helicopter came down looked a lot smoother than the way that helicopters come down on to the airstrip...

1 thing is this seperate to theairstrip or are they linked so if 1 goes down so foes the other hope not?

Well the building itself is seperate from the airstrip but if the airstrip is killed then you won't be able to buy the aircraft anymore. If you destroy the helipad then you can either have it so it stop aircraft from being purchased (it will still take you money at the moment, maybe we can sort someting out for that in the future). Or you can have it so the helipad just gets destroyed. The aircraft comes down smooth because of the waypath i made it will follow it. Also if some enemy thinks there going to try and be smart by shooting it down from the air then it will attempt to kill the enemy by shootin it with it's weapon.

This script could also be used with the aircraft fuel one if you wanted to. This means that you can set a time limit on the aircraft, after this time expires the aircraft will start to get damaged by explosions (can be set) until it returns to a refuel zone (scriptzone at helipad or something) also we could set the helipad up to repair making it have a use.

Hope i have gave you some ideas to think about for these scripts.

One question if for flying maps you have to have the entier map self contained so no aircraft can get out (vechile blockers) how do you get the vechile to spawn off the map and also pass through the blockers??.

Thanks for your help getting the agregeates working. I read that tutorial you wrote on making a briges. The bit on agregates helped a lot. There is a problem (maybe) about the vehicle entering the map due to vehicle blockers, ther must be a way round it that will work.

I really wish you'd credit Dante with this stuff... I had pushed his behind for about two weeks to make a Helicopter Pad script for Renegade Alert. Most of the scripts he wrote were for it to begin with.

You take way too much credit for just making his scripts work. Instead of you making tutorials on *his* scripts, let him do it - he knows ten times more about them than you do.

No, not anymore.

It's also pointless to have helicopters that fly in to land on the Helicopter Pad, because of the flight ceiling. You have to make the helicopter in question fly through the flight ceiling - but that's impossible.

The only real way to do it is to have the helicopter in question appear about fifteen feet above the Helicopter Pad, and lower itself down onto it.

I was asked to help tests the scripts contained in the scripts.dll file by Jon Wilson and to document them with detailed tutorials. I am not taking the credit for the making of the scripts and no where have i ever said that. Also Dante helped me out with these scripts becuase he wanted me to write a tutorial on how to use these scripts on maps. He took time to explaing to me how they work and helped me out with problems i had. I have worked hard testing these scripts and getting them working incluing a map with 24 scripts tested and working. You come along and say whats the point in me doing all of this and taking too much credit for it, it only makes me not want to help people because of things you are trying to say.

That's how you come off. I don't care if they asked you to do it or not - you can easily credit their hard work more than you are now.

Wel if you spent time to read my tutorial you will see that i credit everyone who's help or work has been needed in them. This will include you as well as bumpaneer for working on the helipads and their agregates. Also stonerook for help me setting up the agregates on the helipads. I have only released a video showing how the script works so i don't think you can call that claiming credit for someone elses work. Also i would like to see a place where i have once mentioned ANYTHING about me doing all of the work and not giving credit to the people who deserved it.

StoneRook never made Helicopter Pads.

Those are the official Helicopter Pads I received from Westwood Studios for multiplayer games, and released to the public around Christmas-time with help from Bumpaneer for the damage and destruction aggregrates.

There's another thing you got wrong.

No - your wrong Aircraftkiller - He never said i made them (that i can see) - i just helped him set up aggergates. (via questions asked on the forums, and tutorials)

And i believe he has given more credit for using other modder's work to build on more than others have here..

General Havoc is doing fine work - making more Renegade modifications - which in turn will keep the game going.

and isn't this a goal of the "official Renegade Mod Forums"?

Missed that part... He credited Bumpaneer for the Helipads, except those are the ones from Renegade Realm which came from WS.

Anyways, yes... I suppose his tutorials are good, but I'd like to see him release a tutorial instead of a video of a helicopter landing at a Helicopter Pad. We've already seen what it can do before... It's almost old hat now.

I haven't seen him do any Renegade modifications. Last time I checked, it was Dante making those scripts which allowed him to create tutorials on them.
