Making mission, but the objects have the wrong height???
« on: February 25, 2015, 14:36:29 »

As a newbie on mission editing it is clearly something i dont knows. Im trying to make a mission, but as you can see at the attached picture, the objects that should be on land, they dont get higher than the water.
Can anyone tell me what im doing wrong here?

ALL objects will first appear at the level of the water surface. You must raise to quay level by using the "Y" axis in "Location real". Do this by using the "up" arrow beside "Location real". Raise to about 2 metres (most quays are 3m above water level. In my picture of Marseille it is only 2m.) You will see when the vehicle is at the right level. See picture below which explains it for you.

If you read page 8 of the mission editor notes you will find detailed information about this.

Angus.

Thanks for that assistance, i got it now. But another thing is, where can i find the mission editor notes/manual?
Have tried the search field here, but still cant find it.
Is it me that is that stupid, or where is it?

I managed to create a mission for my own use after your help, but i am eager to learn more about missions.

Click on the link I posted above. At the bottom of the page you will find the Mission editor notes.
