Found under Custom Compositions, Steam subscribed content/airport/Blackfish HALO Spawn (1000m alt). It is comprised of completely vanilla objects and is spawnable in Zeus. When placing in Eden, disable Vertical Mode and Surface Snapping before placing the comp. Made for use in Bohemia script=2 enabled servers. DOESN'T WORK in Zeus unless you have script permissions! Works fine in SP/MP if you include it in the mission instead of spawning through Zeus.

Description: This is a fully walkable Blackfish with a 8 seat cabin (MSE-3 Marid hull). Players spawn in the cabin (scripted Blufor spawn), and when they exit the vehicle they are in the fuselage of the Blackfish. There are a couple airdrop pallets in the Blackfish, the first and last ones each have 100 parachutes, and you can also convert them to player arsenals if you use a placeable script. The aircraft is 1000m above the ground attached to an invisible helipad placed on the ground. If you delete the helipad the Blackfish will turn the players inside into scrambled eggs and crash!

SPAWN ISSUES: If the spawn script doesn't work, double click the Marid's icon and manually place a respawn on it.

ADVANTAGE of using Blackfish HALO over traditional spawn and arsenal: You can still give the players an arsenal, while preventing them in large part from abusing it. How? They all need to have parachutes before they jump or they die. This means no backpack storage. No tripod backpacks, no Bergan with 5x Vorona. The only missile you get is the one in the launcher. Just remember, if the view distance is high, they will try to snipe all the enemy AI from the Blackfish lmao.

FUN IDEA: Fly a Zeus controlled heli or plane around the back of the Blackfish so players can shoot at it from the ramp, its hilarious.

You are free to use this comp however you want, but I would appreciate it if you would credit/link my workshop page if you reupload it or use it in your own work.

For one thing, Independent doesn't always suck. But anyways, as long as you are in the proper Zeus script=2 server, all you need to do is double click the Marid and select the Green respawn icon, then OK. You could also script in a Independent respawn into the Init of the Marid and resave it as a Indy version.

how do I set it to spawn other factions suck as independent

Correct. Just double click Marid spawn and change it to any faction spawn. I have similar comps for Huron, Taru, and Mohawk too but the Blackfish is the most interesting.

I'm terrible public zeus but I can play with this privately. Thank you so much for this. You can just swap the spawn for any other faction as well, right?

can this be used with exile as custom respawn over vanilla respawn? Or use a walkable blackfish for players to fly?
