Same problem here and I also use "Player Combat Support".
Couldn't one write some thing like this, if one knew the name of the variable for slingloading?
this setvariable ["CS_TYPE","TRANSPORT"];
this setvariable ["CS_CALLSIGN","MUMAKIL"];
this setvariable ["CS_SLINGLOAD","NOPE"];
Hello....sorry can someone explain exactly every step to remove this crates ? Thanks !!
Right now, just turn off Sling Loading in the Transport module.
@Friznit How do we disable it if we don't use the module but manually place the chopper and sync it to CS?
You can't in the current release. We've added a variable for the next update.
Thanks @Friznit!
@DLEGION and to whom it may concern! If you use the "Player Combat Support" you can use this after the next update:
this setVariable ["CS_SLINGLOADING", false]; //disables sling loading on transport helis

Thanks. Can someone show me how the code would look for a transport chopper with slingloading false? I see two seperate entries, but not an example of two entries together.
Also, will we really not be able to use slingloading just because we don't want the clutter? Would there be no way to keep slingloading in the mission and just add our own objects ourself?
Put the following in the init line of the chopper and sync to PCS:
this setvariable ["CS_TYPE","TRANSPORT"]; this setvariable ["CS_CALLSIGN","Callsign of unit"]; //<- optional this setVariable ["CS_SLINGLOADING", false];
And about the clutter, good question!
Height = Altitude of the landing site....
What does that mean?
I take it replacing 5 to 0 in your example means no pre-placed boxes with slingloading still working so thank you! :)
height is the height that the cs asset spawns
@SpyderBlack723 height is the height that the cs asset spawns
It's there so people can spawn things on the LHD and other carriers.
And yes, we've heard all the feedback loud & clear - next update has more flexibility of how many boxes you want spawned, including 0 if you want to place them yourself.
Thanks for testing the new feature!
Can I get clarification on what is assumed when adding this setvariable["CS_TYPE","TRANSPORT"]; to a helicopter init?
Will this automatically default slingloading to false or do we need to write it? Also, I'd assume that also means if slingloading is false, putting the init line for crates to 0 would not be necessary and would be redundant?
I'm prepping some missions for the hotfix and just want to be sure I'm doing it all correctly.
Transport could be anything tbh, crates are separate to slingloading. They are they for you to store things, move things around etc.
So is slingloading assumed false after the hotfix or will we need to write it? Currently it's assumed true.
And are crates assumed 0 with slingloading true after the hotfix?
default is true and 0 correct.
Adding a dropdown so you can select the object you want to lift (choose from objects that can be slung - within 100m of player or within 100m of the map marker)
I Really Like The Slingloading Feature, But Yes I Want To Be Able To Control My Own Crates. Thanks For This Great Mod!

That looks really cool. Good work!
That's a really genius idea Tupolov.
