The version running on EU#1 at this time does not suffer the script bug you mention, that was fixed on AWs end several weeks ago.

 

To fix it yourself: (or tell other server admins who are hosting versions with broken pilot restriction):

 

1. Find the file "pilotCheck.sqf"

2. Open it.

3. Find both entries of: player action ["eject", _veh]; 

4. Change both entries to: player action ["getOut", _veh];

This is what my pilotCheck.sqf looks like and it still doesn't work.   I'm using 2.65b Altis.

And why feel the need to report this topic?

[tonnic]

Ummmm.... Because the reported fix doesn't work???

[zissou]

The report button is to report topics with questionable content so as they can be looked at by admins in a timely fashion. Not to report that your server isn't working. 

For example one might report this post for being excessively troll like.

Note: don't report for excess trolling I was demonstrating an example. 

[razgriz33]

player action ["eject", _v]; // eject player

 

This line doesn't work any more, see the post above your last post for the fix, I''m not sure how you missed it but there's the fix

...omg.... I posted the wrong one......it's one of those weeks...

 

 

 

 

 

 

OK.....now that I have facepalmed a couple of times and let this week catch up to me.... sorry again guys......     Is there a way to prevent people bypassing the pilot slot by jumping in as co-pilot and then taking controls?

[razgriz33]

Hey no problem, we've all been there.

 

There is a couple of ways, one scripted definite way and the other is more of an ethical fix. Your pilots should be in the pilot seat of their aircraft correct? so they can lock the controls or unlock at their will, however if your pilots are (for some reason) doing something they shouldn't be, another player will happily highlight this for you and take his helicopter away from the undeserving pilot.

 

As for the scripting way, it would be similar to the aforementioned however with a difference (i can't remember off the bat what it would say) here:

 

if (driver _v == player) then { // if player is driver of that vehicle

I would say the ethical solution fares better though!

The problem lies when a helo goes down and people are spawn camping the helos and jump in them before the pilot gets into the helicopter..  Perhaps not allowing the 'take controls' unless you are a pilot. ...  unfortunately I have never scripted for Arma... where could you point me to look into this further?

[soldat ryan]

or lock the co-pilot slot for aircraft you want !
Check your "pilotcheck.sqf"
 

 

 
....
true spawn {
    _pilots = ["B_Helipilot_F"];
    _aircraft_nocopilot = ["B_Heli_Transport_01_camo_F", "B_Heli_Transport_01_F"];

    waitUntil {player == player};
....

He said he is running 2.65b ... The pilotCheck for 2.75 era versions is quite different.
