To change what units can be dropped from crates modify the spawnable crates section. An extra parameter, ```cratesRequired = NUMBER``` can be added so you need more than one crate to build a unit. This parameter cannot be used for the HAWK system as that is already broken into 3 crates. You can also specify the coalition side so RED and BLUE have different crates to drop. If the parameter is missing the crate will appear for both sides.

###Change Remaining Groups For a Pickup Zone
In the configuration of a pickup zone / pickup ship you can limit the number of groups that can be loaded.
Call the function below to add or remove groups from the remaining groups at a zone.
```lua
ctld.changeRemainingGroupsForPickupZone("pickup1", 5) -- adds 5 groups for zone or ship pickup1
ctld.changeRemainingGroupsForPickupZone("pickup1", -3) -- remove 3 groups for zone or ship pickup1
```
###Unload Transport
You can force a unit to unload its units (as long as its on the ground) by calling this function.
```lua
ctld.unloadTransport("helicargo1")
```
###Auto Unload Transport in Proximity to Enemies
If you add the below as a DO SCRIPT for a CONTINOUS TRIGGER, an AI unit will automatically drop its troops if its landed and there are enemies within the specificed distance (in meters)
```lua
ctld.unloadInProximityToEnemy("helicargo1",500) --distance is 500
```
####Create Radio Beacon at Zone
A radio beacon can be spawned at any zone by adding a Trigger Once with a Time More set to any time after the CTLD script has been loaded and a DO SCRIPT action of ```ctld.createRadioBeaconAtZone("beaconZone","red", 1440,"Waypoint 1")```

You can also list the UNIT NAME of ship instead of a trigger zone to allow the loading/unloading of troops from a ship. You will not be able to fast rope troops onto the deck so you must land to drop the troops off.

##Crate Unpacking
Once you have sling loaded and successfully dropped your crate, you can land and list nearby crates that have yet to be unpacked using the F10 Crate Commands Menu, as well as unpack nearby crates using the same menu. Crates cannot be unpacked near a logistics unit.
To build a HAWK AA system you will need to slingload all 3 parts - Launcher, Track Radar and Search Radar - and drop the crates within 100m of each other. If you try to build the system without all the parts, a message will list which parts are missing. The HAWK system by default will spawn with 3 launchers as it usually fires off 3 missiles at one target at a time. If you want to change the amount of launchers it has, edit the ```ctld.hawkLaunchers``` option in the user configuration at the top of the CTLD.lua file.
To build a HAWK or BUK AA system you will need to slingload all 3 parts - Launcher, Track Radar and Search Radar - and drop the crates within 100m of each other. The KUB only requries 2 parts.

**Note: Once unpacked a crate will not disappear from the field or the F6 Menu, but will disappear from the F10 Nearby Crates list. There is currently no way to remove crates due to a DCS Bug AFAIK. This can make picking the right crate tricky, but by using the F10 List crates option, you can keep readjusting your position until you are close to the crate that you want and then it's trial and error, using the F6 menu to pick the right crate for sling loading. **
You can also repair a partially destroyed HAWK system by dropping a repair crate next to it and unpacking. A repair crate will also re-arm the system.

##Forward Operating Base (FOB) Construction
FOBs can be built by loading special FOB crates from a **Logistics** unit into a C-130 or other large aircraft configured in the script. To load the crate use the F10 - Troop Commands Menu. The idea behind FOBs is to make player vs player missions even more dynamic as these can be deployed in most locations. Once destroyed the FOB can no longer be used.
