                        It was done in Hl1, in the level with the dam. He shoots the missles at the slave even if it's in an easy level.
The chopper has only one animation so it was done with AI like you said. It has to be the position of the chopper that makes him shoot the missles and not bulltes.
Oh well I can always fake it. I'll just use an env_beam that it's end target will be a train. At the end of the beam there will be a glow.(end sprite value/flag in the beam/lazer) The train will move toward a path_corner that targets a env_explotion and kills(killtarget value) the beam. I'll add the rocket sounds too, so it will look real.
As for making the chopper fly away, I'll just change it's target(trigger_changetarget) to a diffrent path that will lead him around a corner where the last path_corner will kill him.
Thanks for the information about spirit, I might use it instead of faking the seaquence.
