Hi, guys!

I'm trying to simulate an infiltration of a SEAL Recon Team behind enemy lines. I created a LZ, the SEALS are deployed as soon as the helo lands, then the helo takes off few minutes later. What bothers me is the fact that the helo refuels from LZ no matter what and I have no idea how to prevent it from doing this.
I'd appreciate any suggestion.
Thank you!

Fuel isn't kept track of at bases, therefore landing at an LZ structure or any other airfield would always refuel the craft. I would suggest using a cargo mission, which would not require a structure to land. The helicopter will deliver the cargo, touch down to drop off, and will not refuel.

Thanks, Dan109!

The amount of fuel burnt by the helo isn't that much of an issue for what i'm trying to simulate, but maybe the devs will take this into consideration for a future release.

Yeah sorry to say they'll automatically refuel so working as designed.

You may went to leverage some lua to adjust fuel levels.
