At the moment im using waypoint paths, with invisable floors or even clouds, it would be nice to still use way points but with no floor segments,
or even a whole new aproach, i have seen a helicopter script that has been done before, but its some what confusing as it was setup as a character, and it would only work if you stayed within 10 squares of it,
But with my idea it works ok at even 20 ish squares and at a height moving from layer 19 down to 0 and vise versa at the same time as moving along waypoint,
And so i would like it if you could be able to make things more easy, like maybe have sound, as i have failed to work that bit out, and to have the plane disapear after a certain time, And mainly to control the height as i use the floatrate.
Example 5 seconds at layer 7 and then move up or down for another set seconds and so on throughout a duration untill i need it to disapear.
Or maybe you can get some info from this heli script

i would be most greatfull for any help
I'am not GOD but i can make you see again by taking my fingers out of your eyes and i can make you walk again by taking your beer away, So its nice to give!
