FFG-7 and Helo Behavior

Werewolf13 · 03-07-06, 08:44 AM

Is there a way to get the helo that belongs to a player controlled FFG-7 and starts the mission in the air to patrol a fixed area ahead of the frigate that moves as the frigate does?

Kind of like the patrol areas one could set up in Harpoon that moved as the group moved.

I've experimented with this a bit. If you give the Helo a starting tactic of area waypoints it follows those regardless of where the frigate is or goes. I want the helo to scout an area ahead of the ship and move along with it. Can't figure out how to get that behavior.

What am I doing wrong?

As an aside how does one control the altitude and speed of a helo when it is not player controlled?
