Hook_Echo Posted February 18, 2024 Posted February 18, 2024 I understand how to create and link waypoints in singleplayer missions to the player plane. I am trying to create a dogfight mission for a race course. I want to be able to choose from several different planes, so I created a fakefield with an air start and several planes to choose from. I cant figure out how to assign my waypoints to the spawned plane since there is no plane object in the mission editor to link it to. I tried creating an event in the fakefield advanced properties to trigger the waypoint on "OnPlaneSpawned" with no luck. Is it possible to assign waypoints to planes spawned from a fakefield in dogfight mode?
Sketch Posted February 19, 2024 Posted February 19, 2024 It's not possible to give waypoints to planes in a dogfight mission. (Where planes are constantly respawning.) If you want to give something similar, you can use checkzones or complex triggers. As a plane flies through your complex trigger, they can activate the next waypoint. 1

As a plane flies through your complex trigger, they can activate the next waypoint. I couldn't get the check zone to trigger the waypoint either. But I should be able to use a check zone to trigger the animation of the racing gate. That's what I was trying to accomplish ultimately. Thank you sir. I got fixated on the waypoints.
Hook_Echo Posted February 20, 2024 Author Posted February 20, 2024 @Sketch I just tried it out and I have racing gates activating in order. Thanks again. If you have any advice on how to display a time elapsed between the first and last gate/check zone I'm all ears. That's my last remaining obstacle ?
