Thank you for your work, bro. I have a question to ask you. Regarding the helicopter, I created a helicopter using the garage, but the person who gets in can't exit the helicopter, and the mission can't be completed. Is there any way to solve this

Still the best heli practice scenario.

Changing settings worked, thank you.

Changed difficulty settings ? I doubt anything in ArmA3 itself has changed enough to make the mission incompatible but I haven't got the time to investigate right now. You can try getting the source files and seeing if things are different in Eden.

Hey rambo, love this mod and recommend it to all budding pilots I meet. However, the objective markers are no longer appearing on the HUD for me. Any idea what might be causing this?

@Tam you can make it yourself, just grab the sources from github and start modifying things.

Hey can you make a cup verison?
Pls

@Two Tony Tony: AFAIRecall mission has difficulty settings to force 1st person only (because that's what is my default anyway), download the source files and edit the difficulty in Eden.

Hey, for some reason am i am stuck on 1st person?

More improvements from mija included, I haven't had the time to test this by actually flying around so if it suddenly does not work for you let me know and I'll re-upload older version.

Now updated with @MIJAMIJAMIJAs changes, fixes issue #4 (add LZMaxDistance parameter)

https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2515720838

S.O.G. Prairie Fire version + fixes

@mijamijamija of course, all the source files for the mission are public on github for a purpose. Pull-request for the max-distance would be most welcome.I would like all the missions that use the scripts to also have the sources available somewhere (github/gitlab/whatever floats your boat) for further improvement by the community and recognition is of course nice. Remember to ping me with a link and I'll add it to the desc.

ill take a look at it rambo. ill take a look at what that other person said about max distance to waypoint too, maybe i can figure it out. am i allowed to upload a vietnam version of this if you are credited properly?

@mijamijamija sorry I haven't got the time, but you can do it quite easily yourself: see the "customizing" link above, the Eden mission editor is quite easy to use. Look into this mission in editor to see how the vehicle init script is added.

yo rambo any chance you could make a mission like this for SOG Prairie Fire?

waka floka: the scripts are in github. It's not hard to adapt it to any map (basically just copy the scripts and create the LZ markers in the map, hardest part is setting up the auto-respawn for vehicles at the airfield and even that is easy, just see how it's done and do the same.if you have any idea at all how to edit scenarios you'll be done in an hour. If not, take the time to learn, it will be fun and shouldn't take more than a couple of hours.

can you please make this but for the unsung vietnam mod and have this based in vietnam

Works a treat, thank you!

It seems something has changed in hitboxes or the map, adjusted heli positions and exported new version, should work better now.

Is it just me, or does the Hummingbird just constantly explode on spawn? It appears to stop once you've flown the Ghost Hawk away a little and let it explode 20-30 times, but not ideal!

How do i use this map for training after i subscribed? The arma 3 menu is so confusing

@Renegade1085 I added this as GH issue, don't know when anyone will have time to work on it tho https://github.com/rambo/arma3_missions/issues/4

rambo I have no idea how to script so I can't modify the files myself but would it be possible to add LZ max distance to the parameters? I've added your scripts to a jungle map but some of the LZs are upwards of 9km from each other and then it becomes flying trainer instead of landing trainer. Other than that, awesome mission though

Feel free ;) just copy the scripts to your malden mission folder and start putting markers on the map.

Any plans to add this to Malden?

Just subscribe to this on steam and it should be available under multiplayer missions (host new LAN multiplayer game on Altis). The github link is the raw mission source, for use in the Eden editor, it's not playable as-is.

I did click the above links and went to the off site but have no idea what to do or what to load etc. once I get there. Do I just copy paste, download all the different files there or what. Thanks..
I am sooooo lost..

How and where do I download this Helicopter Training mission? I am still learning things in Arma 3 and am getting into the helos.

It does look like a great way to help me learn before I go into multi player and start killing of my passengers while learning to fly better.
I could use and will greatly appreciate any help I can get. I am in the process of getting my X52 joystick set up so I will be flying with that, and any help I can get with that to will be greatly appreciated.

Brilliant man.

Does this version have the Huron?

Hey, I edited this mission to have RHS instead of vanilla helos.

Also thought I'd let you know that it runs fine in SP.

Nice flying Harudath, I don't have the time to edit it into a highlight video though :( but if you make one send it my way and I'll upload it.

Also feel free to upload your mission to workshop too, I'll link to it. The more we have these the better :)

Excellent mission, thanks for uploading. Modified it slightly for custom map and contemporary vehicles - exactly what I've been looking for.

awesome thanks @rambo! I'll give it a try.

@pure_Kilroy: should be fixed now.

Awesome, really impressed with the support. Let me know if u need someone to test the issue with.

Roger, made an issue to github [github.com], can't promise any timeline for a fix (I'm not going to be able to look at it next weekend since I'm away and weeknights are usually busy too).

All vehicles, I can break my own engine and tail rotor, But my friend cannot.

@pure_Kilroy: Probably can be fixed but I'll need to do a bunch of testing (and find a friend to help with the test,edit,restart,repeat -cycle), do you have this problem with all of the vehicles or only with some ?

Question: For some reason my friend cannot destroy my engine while hes in the co-pilot seat and I'm the pilot. Is there a way to get this working?

Updated with respawn script.

yeah I might have removed that... there is a repair script now but it is possible to get youself stuck in a place where you break rotors or something immediately... I'll do something about it at some point when I have time, or if you're quicker just make a PR on github.

Great mission, I tested it with a friend just now and it works perfectly in multiplayer. The Apex vehicles just aren't enterable without Apex, so will still work for those who don't have them.


I think you did remove the manual helicopter respawn function though; what happens if a helicopter becomes stuck and the player can't recover it? Will it respawn if it is not destroyed?

As for other islands: it's relatively simple based on the code on this mission, just make a new mission, copy my code and then add the vehicle spawn points and LZ markers on the map (this is the tedious part), then edit the init.sqf and fix LZCOUNT, all should be set then.
