Mission Editor code snippets

Copy and paste these codes snippets into your waypoint actions.

Troop Drops

Drop troops from AI planes, helicopters, or ground vehicles.

Copy and paste this into a Run Script command (advanced waypoint actions) to drop 8 troops from a ground vehicle or aircraft. Works with both friendly and enemy craft.

local this_group = ... RotorOps.deployTroops(8, this_group)

This is handy to add friendly or enemy reinforcements in combination with mission triggers. Mission templates will include at least one example of this usage.

AI Tasks

The Conflict game type sets AI tasks automatically for units inside of the staging area or Conflict Zones. You can use these snippets for groups outside of these zones or for your missions that are not running a Conflict game.

Copy and paste this into a Run Script command (advanced waypoint actions) for a group to wander an area

local this_group = ... RotorOps.aiTask(this_group, "patrol")

Set infantry or ground vehicles to find enemies in a radius

Copy and paste this into a Run Script command (advanced waypoint actions) for a group to seek out enemies in an area
