Title give off what I need. An intercepter to listen to a order, fly where I want it, and dissaper when it hits the target location.

Im using it for a super awesome uber leet sniper in mah Zombie map.

I've not played NFL Blitz, but typically interceptors are controlled using the Set Generic Command Point and Make These Units Patrol (To Command Target) AI-at-location scripts. In order to acknowledge these AI scripts, the interceptor must belong to a computer player (that's why Aerial Combat, Particle Arena, and other maps of that sort are always 4-player).



None.

Could you explain the trigger that would make a intercepter move from the carrier attacking the supply depot, then moves DIRECTLY to a location, without wanting to return to its respective carrier?

We can't explain the universe, just describe it; and we don't know whether our theories are true, we just know they're not wrong. >Harald Lesch

Make the Carrier (belonging to comp) attack something so you got flying interceptors.
Then use a trigger that teleports them to the starting location (uber leet sniper).
Then execute ai script set generic command point to the target (super pitiful loser enemy).
Then execute ai script make these units patrol.

Well I don't know your exact mistake, but maybe because carrier was too near.

I added a loc around Carrier and modified the patrol trigger a little.
Rest is eye candy.

There are two interceptor tests in my Tests Compilation, one shows how to control it by simply moving it, the other shows by ordering it.
