Thoroughly enjoy this mission. Wonder if there was a line of code or way to have the chopper fully loaded with AI infantry, even post-respawn..

@dr_strangepete It seems to be a problem exclusive to the Hummingbird, I was not able to reproduce the problem on other helicopters. It's also not accidental pressing, because I fly with the controller. I'm not sure why it happened, but as it doesn't happen with the M900 I'll just use that then.

@logerup I can't seem to repro myself, but i have a couple questions, are you using the advanced flight model? and what maneuver does it happen during? any helicopter? And a few other thoughts to try --

-my keybindings default autohover to the 'x' key which is right below my collective, so be sure to delete all autohover bindings just incase

-check the RPT file; my script generates debug strings and dumps them here, if something is funky and getting triggered a bunch, or somehow its not autohover but insta-death & respawn, it should be somewhat apparent in the logs. RPT will be in your %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Arma 3 folder

-if you have the time, test with a new temporary Arma profile

@dr_stragepete thanks for the advice despite not actively developing it anymore. It doesn't appear when using the editor for flying. I will try and investigate and keep you posted, should I find something.

@logerup the only time my script triggers autohover is while the settings dialog is open. I would think its either a difficulty setting, or a duplicate keybinding. You could try hitting Esc during the mission, and selecting 'restart', but i'm not sure thats the issue. Alternatively, create a blank mission with the same helicopter, and try your maneuvers to see if it happens there too

And i'm not actively developing it, but always interesting in investigating bugs

I don't know if you're even still working on this, but I'm having a bug, that if I pull some extreme manover it automaticaly activitates autohover. Did I maybe set something wrong?

Hey all, as a proud union member and in honor of Labor Day, I got my ass in gear and caught up to the latest maps. Sorry for the delay! You can now find Livonia, and two seasons of independently developed Weferlingen in the collection, or via the links in the description above.

Enjoy, And have a great weekend!

And a moment of remembrance for those who fought and died to give us a weekend, overtime, and safer, less abusive working conditions. Solidarity forever

@White_wolf - are you using the advanced flight model or basic? Nothing in the script should be able to modify damage sensitivity; you could try using the 'restart mission' in the escape menu. And you're not sliding forward at all when it happens? The game is notoriously explode-y

i found that all of his Hell-Heli have a bug maybe? no matter how gentle i touch the ground i exploded immediately

yeah I ended up custom making one, its awful. Glad you didnt have to do it lol

I'm glad y'all are enjoying, and i appreciate the feedback!

@im bad: You're welcome to manually add the jet class names to the script, or modify it to automatically do so, but its not something i'll have time for anymore, sorry

Very cool mission, have improved my crash landings a lot! thanks!

Added Malden, link in the description.

Happy landings!

Could you make a version with all the jets also? now that you can have damaged rudders and ailerons i think it would be interesting!

Thanks so much for making a Tanoa version of this. I can't find any other helicopter missions that simulate mechanical failure and allow for instant respawn. Keep up the brilliant work!

@injection - believe me when I say I was overly excited for a scenery change too!

Great for learning to land quickly in Tonoa

Additional bugs:
-CUP helicopters for the most part are broken; a couple work - This is because the model's hit-points are not setup correctly - there is nothing I can do but report it to the CUP team at somepoint; feel free to report them as you find them tho...
-EscapeBush/Respawn altitude ignores objects like bridges, so if set too low there is a risk of a death-loop respawning inside the object.

Known bugs:
- Rare double-respawns; report if occurs more than once or twice.
- Death-cam: poor camera placement
- 'Escape Bush' respawn velocity can be wacky
- Rain can take 2 'Apply' clicks to work
