If you suddenly began to miss the controlled helicopters from Battlefield, then this script is for you!
~~(I just had nothing to do)~~

By the way, the "settargetyaw" function is not implemented in the "script engine", its number is 33328 (I can not rotate helicopter without it)

This solves the problem of settargetyaw missing

if (heli_angles[1] > 360) { heli_angles[1] = 0; }
if (heli_angles[1] < 0) { heli_angles[1] = 360; }
var angle = heli_angles[1];
var direction = [ heli.getOrigin()[0] + 100 * gsc.cos(angle), heli.getOrigin()[1] + 100 * gsc.sin(angle), heli.getOrigin()[2] ];
var directionEnt = gsc.Spawn( "script_origin", direction);

fed This is a very great implementation, and I really wanted to implement it!

But the game world is limited in creating objects, and creating a new Entity every 100 ms is fraught with consequences (By the way, I’m not sure about this, and probably it only works for script_model), of course, we can move directionEnt through setOrigin, but i get error and it was discussed

This post is deleted!

I did try setOrigin but the server crashed, and you're right, I played for about 2 mins and it also crashed, would deleting directionEnt fix this?

I found a solution
SetOrigin can only be applied to players (entRef 0-17), in order to interact with other objects(trigger_radius/script_origin/script_model) we will have to use fields, in our case it "origin" with number 2, but fields not workings

ent.moveTo(direction, 0.15);// fix it

fed

I also found that this works fine aswell

setTimeout(fun[directionEnt]() {
    directionEnt.delete();
}, 100);

but moveTo is probably better

fed

Also for explosive bullets, I tried this, works pretty well but the player might shoot himself and die

player.onNotify("weapon_fired", fun[player](arguments) {
      player.setweaponammoclip(player.getcurrentweapon(), player.getweaponammostock(player.getcurrentweapon()));
      shootBullet(player, "ac130_25mm_mp");
});
def getCrosshairTraceOrigin(player) {
	var eye = player.getEye();
        var vec = gsc.anglesToForward(player.getPlayerAngles());
	var end = [ vec[0] * 100000000, vec[1] * 100000000, vec[2] * 100000000 ];
	return end;
}
def shootBullet(player, weapon) {
	gsc.MagicBullet(weapon, player.getEye(), getCrosshairTraceOrigin(player), player);
}

Idk why the code block looks like this
Also tried to add a turret but it wont let me use it

var org = player.getOrigin();
var turret = gsc.spawnTurret( "misc_turret", [org[0] + 10, org[1] + 10, org[2] + 50], "pavelow_minigun_mp" );
turret.setModel("weapon_minigun");
turret.rotateyaw(player.getPlayerAngles()[1])
turret.maketurretoperable();
turret.makeUsable();
turret.set("angles", [ 0, player.getPlayerAngles()[1], 0])
turret.linkto(heli)

I tried to make a controlled turret, but I appeared under a helicopter(but i could shoot from it), I think this can be avoided if the player is not linked

def TurretLinkerToHelicopter(heli, player)
{
	var turret = gsc.spawnTurret( "misc_turret", [0,0,0], "pavelow_minigun_mp" );
	turret.setModel("weapon_minigun");
	turret.maketurretoperable();
	turret.makeUsable();
	turret.linkto(heli, "tag_minigun_attach_left");
	player.remotecontrolturret(turret);
}

if you use LinkTo then assigning angles is pointless

ent.LinkTo(linkToEnt, (string)tag, (vector)originOffset, (vector)anglesOffset);

fed

Changed it to this and it works fine

def TurretLinkerToHelicopter(heli, player)
{
    var tagOrigin = heli.gettagorigin("tag_player_attach_left");
    var turret = gsc.spawnTurret( "misc_turret", [ tagOrigin[0], tagOrigin[1], tagOrigin[2] + 30] , "sentry_minigun_mp" );
    turret.setModel("weapon_minigun");
    turret.maketurretoperable();
    turret.makeUsable();
    turret.linkto(heli, "tag_player_attach_left");
    player.remotecontrolturret(turret);
}

And this otherwise player is in the way

player.PlayerLinkTo(heli, "tag_player_attach_right", .5f, 10, 170, 30, 150, false);
