How do I get planes for dropping Special Forces?

[meade95]

I am building a mission with the editor of TOAW II.......and I can't seem to find a way to get the option to have my special forces units or my paratroopers dropped in by aircraft.

Only helicopters comes up as an option. I have airbases and aircraft on those bases?

Is there some trick I am not aware of?

Thank you for any help.

set airtransport to a nonzero value using the event engine.

Look at your equipment and total list of your forces and see how much weight they total up to.
Literally, in lbs or KGs.
Then you will need to assign a sufficient amount of Air transport for those forces as well as for other future or past air transport.

Save your current SCE file,
Then save the scenario as a diff. name and load it up,

run trials, see if all your forces or part can be transported.

try value of 100, or 50. If no werkie, then bump to 1000. Werkie, then fine tune to exactness.

A little work.
