Allowing Heli Pilots to Eject

[Karmafied 14]

Has anyone discovered a way/script/code that allows Helicopter Pilots to eject from a helo in midflight?  As it stands right now, only passengers can eject if they have a parachute, correct?

Try adding this code to the top of you're mpmissions\Exile.Altis\config.cpp.

You may need to un pbo you're Exile.Altis.pbo to get access to config.cpp.

Original Code Here. 

Good luck

Hi Dave,

No such Luck. I am wondering if I need to download that Mod you linked first? I tried it with just the code you provided but to no avail. Thanks for chiming in, though. :)

In order for something to work via cfgPatches it has to be loaded when the server starts via a PBO.  It cannot be included in the mission file.  It would be better to write something at the script level where you allow players to use an addAction, or better yet press a key, in order to eject.  You could also have it give the player a parachute upon ejection as well.

Thanks, Darth. I took your advice and installed the mod's .pbo then added the cfgPatches code. Works like a charm now. Thank you!
