You can use the projectile script from Armaholic. Nothing new :P

Yes but the one on Armaholic requires you to call on an external script, and does not work for all weapons or all projectiles.

This one is simpler, its not a script, just a camera switch code, can be placed on a unit in the editor without having an external file, and works for every weapon in the game

Now that is cool. You should add a delay before the camera switches back to the cockpit again.

yeah you need to call an external script to do that, then you can use the sleep command. I use a delay in my "impossible snipe" video. you cant control the chopper while your camera is on a projectile though so you would want to keep delay minimum or you might crash.

How do you get the camera to follow the missile like that? I am noob.

I have placed the code in the info section -->

One on armaholic has better effects though. Here it happens so fast it's not even cool :P

Plus it's good to have external scripts. Keeps the mission less cluttered.
