Global CARGO_CRATE

Defines a cargo that is represented by a UNIT object within the simulator, and can be transported by a carrier.

#CARGO_CRATE CARGO_CRATE

Defines a cargo that is represented by a UNIT object within the simulator, and can be transported by a carrier.

Use the event functions as described above to Load, UnLoad, Board, UnBoard the CARGO_CRATE objects to and from carriers.

The above cargo classes are used by the following AI_CARGO_ classes to allow AI groups to transport cargo:

AI Armoured Personnel Carriers to transport cargo and engage in battles, using the AI.AI_Cargo_APC module.
AI Helicopters to transport cargo, using the AI.AI_Cargo_Helicopter module.
AI Planes to transport cargo, using the AI.AI_Cargo_Airplane module.
AI Ships is planned.

The above cargo classes are also used by the TASK_CARGO_ classes to allow human players to transport cargo as part of a tasking:

Tasking.Task_Cargo_Transport#TASK_CARGO_TRANSPORT to transport cargo by human players.
Tasking.Task_Cargo_Transport#TASK_CARGO_CSAR to transport downed pilots by human players.

Developer Note

Note while this class still works, it is no longer supported as the original author stopped active development of MOOSE Therefore, this class is considered to be deprecated
