Why do you expect the AI aircraft not to take off? If basic40c.mis tells them to take off, they will.

you misunderstand me..the AI i am talking about are player abandoned air craft not scripted AI

Sample use of triggers to load a new mission into current one.

110s attack convoy of static objects. When it is killed trigger loads a new mission where 110s attack just one car. When it is killed OnActorDead does not work unfortunately...

It does not work on static objects completely as intended but works for aircraft I think.

Spawn/despawn script is kinda "incomplete" and causes unwanted behavior: plane instantly disappearing on bail out or plane disappearing when single member of crew leaves the plane (i.e. one of bomber gunners leaves the plane) while other members are still inside.

Additionally checking if plane is manned before "killing" it should help with multicrew plane despawns. Bail out despawns probably will be a lot tricker.

Attention mission makers! A person from dev team told we can put AA guns on oil tankers at other forums. This means we can have some sea battles going on in the channel )) or coastal airfields attacked from sea.

Can not try it myself yet.

Someone who knows C# can change it hopefully. I do not see much interest from community to this topic unfortunately. Hopefully when bugs are fixed and we have a stable dedi server things change.

Script for despawning planes without humans inside. Multicrew friendly.

using System;
using maddox.game;
using maddox.game.world;
using System.Collections.Generic;

public class  Mission : AMission
{
	public void _DespawnEmptyPlane(AiActor actor)
	{
					if (actor == null)
						{ return;}

					Player[] Players = GamePlay.gpRemotePlayers();
					
					bool PlaneIsEmpty = true;
					
					foreach (Player i in Players)
					{	
						if ((i.Place() as AiAircraft) == (actor as AiAircraft))
							{ 
								PlaneIsEmpty = false;
								break;
							}
					}
					
					if (PlaneIsEmpty)
						{ (actor as AiAircraft).Destroy(); }
	}

    public override void OnPlaceLeave(Player player, AiActor actor, int placeIndex)
    {
        base.OnPlaceLeave(player, actor, placeIndex);
        Timeout(1, () =>
        {
         	_DespawnEmptyPlane(actor);
        });
    }
}
}

Did you upload your mission somewhere? Could I have a look at it in FMB?
