HeliControl

Change the config option that clearly states it does exactly what you want:

Code:

"Spawning - Automatically call helicopter after this many seconds": 0.0

 

so do i change the "0.0" to 600 for it to spawn every 10 minutes?

 

You would indeed.

 

Shady is there a way to see what plugin is interfering with HeliControl's loot? BetterLoot had an update, and no matter what I do it won't let HeliControl take over in the loot department.

 

Have you confirmed if unloading BetterLoot fixes it?

 

Confirmed. My HeliControl loot is in the crates as it should be. And mysteriously, upon reloading BetterLoot, it's still HeliControl loot. Thanks for prodding me in the right direction!

 

Does this plugin change the helicopter's default speed? People are saying it's slower ever since we added the plugin.

 

Hello new to making a rust server and putting this plugin but I'm finding it hard to add owner to use the /callheli command just says I don't have the permission and can't seem to locate what line it is at. Can someone point me to it? Thanks

 

It shouldn't unless it was upped in the last few updates. If it's too slow for you, you can up the speed in the config, but as I said before; it should be default.

Not sure what you mean by 'line', all you have to do is grant the user the permission by typing this in your server console:

Code:

oxide.grant user UserName helicontrol.callheli

The same goes for any other permissions, I'd also recommend reading this: Using the Oxide permission system | Oxide

 

Would it be possible for you to add a feature that prohibits the helicopter from doing damage to structures you aren't authorized in? Last week's update broke the helicopter and it now shoots regular rockets at bases even if you're not authorized in them and it still hasn't been fixed this week. I've been using your plugin to temporarily disable heli rockets until Facepunch fixed it, but who knows how long that will be.

 

Thank you very much I must of miss read the info

 

sorry to ask but do i have to do these permissions for all commands of this mod?

 

From what I recall, there's no hook for when the Helicopter starts a strafe. It may be possible to do a workaround, but with all due respect, I don't think it's worth the trouble to implement a feature to fix something that *should* be fixed within the next week. If it's not fixed by the next devblog, I'll reconsider.

No, if you want to grant full access to the plugin you can simply grant the permission "helicontrol.admin".

 

ok thank you and lastly ha ha, it wont load into server is that because of the update?

 

HeliControl works fine on the latest version. Make sure you updated Oxide again after updating your server.

 

Is it possible to just disable regular rockets and keep napalm rockets? I see a line in the config that lets me disable napalm but not one for regular rockets.

 

Not currently, but I'll see about putting a small update out soon to add this feature.

 

Thank you, I appreciate it!

 

got a problem i have the heli set to 2500 but the players say its out quicker than the timer is there any problems

 

please add something like "/nextheli" to let players see when the next heli is coming.
