Well it was an unexpected ending xd

Worst. Scenario. Ever. You get there and the helo explodes? WTF? :steamthumbsdown:

Helicopter explodes still when boat is dropped. Sling Load controls also not a factor on here.

Boat or heli explode on drop boat command, mission is unplayable.
Lazy Dog 20 Dec, 2016 @ 10:13am 
The crew has problem mounting the boat

I really like this mission, but unfortunately, I can't play it anymore because of a bug, with the boat.. If it doesn't destroy my chopper, it destroy itself, so the crew have to swim up to the ground, and, if they don't get drawn, it take too much time..

one of the best missions i played

Great little mission that requires a fair amount of target practice. But I love the original idea and I could not spot any bugs.
Ruwe 2 Feb, 2014 @ 1:21pm 
Anyone else noticing that the AI is terminator like? Two or three shots and they've shot me out of a moving helicopter. I must be doing something wrong here! Very fun mission though

good for elic. practice and lot of fun
TWiG [SPOG] 17 Nov, 2013 @ 1:49pm 
I had a lot of fun with this one. Thanks!!

Still practising my helicopter skills. Looks like I need more training to finish this mission without refuel ;)
Potifer 15 Oct, 2013 @ 12:56pm 
Liked it. A bit different. Thanks.

Did you run really low on fuel? I might add in refuel if people need it.
Miesbert 13 Oct, 2013 @ 6:18am 
Any refuel option? I just found repair and rearm, couldn´t find refuel though.

I enjoyed this, it was easy enough for a novice pilot to handle and had a unique idea for a rescue instead of the normal "walk here, kill the soldiers, walk back with hostages in tow".

Nice mission. Although near the end the passengers decided to get out of the truck and walk the rest of the way to the base, which took a while.

I hope you can see this, since I have my profile a bit closed to other people.
If not, then I'll upload it. At the right bottom you can see the dev branch version I am currently using.

@Outlaw: you should be able to upload it to steam and send me the link. Does the problem still happen with the latest dev branch? There was a general issue with reverting from saves that was fixed in it.
papy.rabbit.08 5 Sep, 2013 @ 1:33pm 
So, I didn't vote, because your mission's probably great! But I tried it 10 times. Either my chopper got destroyed, either the boat sank... So I wait for another time :)
Outlaw28 5 Sep, 2013 @ 7:12am 
I have made a screenshot of it. Tell me where I need to send it. ;)
MadocComadrin  [author] 4 Sep, 2013 @ 4:19pm 
Interesting. Did you catch what it said?
Outlaw28 4 Sep, 2013 @ 12:40pm 
It all works great, but after you crash/die/fail the mission after the autosave I get an error.
Gliptal 29 Aug, 2013 @ 11:56pm 
I'm REALLY sorry, it was a Mod interfering with the chopper rotor. Apparently the issue was fixed in one of the Mod's version, but not in the latest. Sorry again.
MadocComadrin  [author] 29 Aug, 2013 @ 4:40am 
There's no rope ATM (it would just be graphical anyway). If it's an issue in the dev build I can check it out and fix it--it shouldn't take anything more than changing a single number.
Gliptal 29 Aug, 2013 @ 3:32am 
Gliptal 29 Aug, 2013 @ 3:31am 
22 Meters. The Little Bird and the Boat seem to be directly attached one to the other: from the scenario screen I believe there should be some sort of rope?

I'm on the Dev Build if this might help.
MadocComadrin  [author] 28 Aug, 2013 @ 4:15pm 
Really? Did you get a chance to see your altitude before it happened?
Gliptal 28 Aug, 2013 @ 1:56pm 
The Little Bird blows up as soon as I start the mission.
PukkaJ0b 26 Aug, 2013 @ 3:06am 
Really aweosme Mission! Loved it! I thought the Boat dropping from the chopper and protecting the convoy was just brilliant! Diffrent, Exciting, Challenging and very enjoyable! Good work! P.S. Probably my Favorite mission so far! ;)
DN GM 25 Aug, 2013 @ 2:02pm 
Yeah, right, but that remains to be the work of Bohemia.
I hope they do fix it though
MadocComadrin  [author] 25 Aug, 2013 @ 11:39am 
Aye, the dispersion for the Pawnee could use some work. I find that some surgically placed DARs work much better against infantry than bursts from the guns, especially since AI don't really react to being suppressed.
Anfo 25 Aug, 2013 @ 9:07am 
Yeah great...except I put a belt of 7.62mm into a target and somehow miss?
DN GM 23 Aug, 2013 @ 2:28pm 
Loved this mission man. Wasn't too difficult but it was perfect for a noob like me. Keep up the great work
ALA12 23 Aug, 2013 @ 1:26am 
ok
workingmatt 22 Aug, 2013 @ 9:17pm 
Great mission, please make more!! Great work dude!
IncredibleBulk92 22 Aug, 2013 @ 5:28pm 
This is a pretty good mission, the start has a cool hook but ends up being a little boring by the end, just dropping off the boat and waiting 5 minutes isn't brilliant but I enjoying the shooting range you set up for my little bird, even though I still suck at hitting things with that minigun.

@HypeR Tips for scripting? Try doing some. The Arma wiki has a huge scripting reference. Just try scripting simple things first, like show hints and stuff.
Wombach 21 Aug, 2013 @ 3:45pm 
Nice....Good job, man!
ItsJthePlug 21 Aug, 2013 @ 8:14am 
Hey mate, love the level, I would like to learn a bit more about the editor, I'm competant with placing, basic waypoints etc... But I really wanna get into the scripting, any tips ? :)
lettucemode 21 Aug, 2013 @ 5:13am 
2 helicopters would be sick
PHo 20 Aug, 2013 @ 2:26pm 
Nice mission...what I was looking for =D big fun
Gera_CCT 19 Aug, 2013 @ 7:18pm 
Thanks!!
Parker® 19 Aug, 2013 @ 5:54am 
This looks awesome :D
Blokeio 18 Aug, 2013 @ 9:23pm 
Pretty good, some nice touches.
bMaurice 18 Aug, 2013 @ 8:57pm 
Great mission...I like!
Schnell 18 Aug, 2013 @ 5:12pm 
make this coop with 2 helicopter please
Rob 18 Aug, 2013 @ 4:17pm 
Great training mission for anyone that has yet to master helicopters - lots of low level, low speed flying and target practice. Think I might try more mp flying now :)
Siddy5940 18 Aug, 2013 @ 4:11pm 
Fantastic, one thing i will say is on the first play through, none of them got in the boat and instead started swimming to shore.... the next time, one ai didnt get in the boat.. and the other 3 drove off without him! but i am on dev branch? not sure if that'd affect it?

Only thing i would say would make this better was if you had to search for them, Instead of getting told instantly where they are????? Would love to see a co op version... dont know how that'd work but.. if you can think up this then im sure you could create something even more awesome for co op
