Hi,
after hours of testing and working in the editor I have to report, that troops who did get in a helicopter with the "get in" waypoint will not be unloaded by the helcopter as soon as the helicopter spottets enemy vehicles.
As soon as the the helicopter spottets enemys, all waypoints will be dropped and it just starts to flying around in a big circle and will never land.
I've tryed almost everything to let the helicopter land but nothing works.
(you can place vehicles and soldiers on the map manually as well, if you want. It will make no differences...
Waypoints:
Soldiers:
helicopter:
That's all.
If I remember right, this is a known issue from ARMA2, why is this still in the game?
Have you tried disabling fleeing by using allowFleeing command? https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/allowFleeing
It should help. If not, please, let me know.
I can confirm this issue. However I had a different setup. In my mission one UH-80 is waiting until every player is onboard. Then it starts, flys to the target area. However I didn't place a Get Out waypoint. The AI pilot simply ignores EVERY waypoint close to enemys and tries to engage although not told to!

Thanks a lot for helping us improve the game!
Just a note:
"Get out" waypoint --> synchronized with "transport unload" waypoint of the heli.
It's better not to synchronize these waypoint because this way you are duplicating the orders and the AI can get stuck waiting on the other one (e.g. Get Out) that may never get completed (cargo got already out by the first WP)
