Liferaft Rescue help

I figured out how to put a pilot in a liferaft in Mission Editor. Add a ship and select liferaft. Then add static UH-1 cargo and adjust the weight to 220 lbs. Then place that cargo in the liferaft. So you have the liferaft in the water and the pilot figure in the liferaft. However I can't seem to get him 'hooked' after prolonged hovering over him (10+ seconds). Also if the rope length is not extra long then the raft is blown away by the rotorwash. I put it in a inshore pond so it couldn't move and still no hook.

Anyone have some suggestions???

Not 100% sure, but if you can't find a way to make it work how you want, you could look at Moose scripting to add a "pilot" to the helo to simulate him being reeled in. He could then unload when you land.

There are some good tutorial videos about the scripting here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjrA9j5LQoWsG4SpS8i79Qg

I did this with MOOSE and ZONE_UNIT.

You can see some of it at work in this video.

It was definitely a complex script by the time I was done.
