player throws the .....

player throws the supply drop for Heli Signals.. is left waiting for a heli that never arrives

Please share any errors in the console you had

I have no errors to share sorry.. the signal is sent, nothing arrives

Please post your config

HeliSignals.json

If its not appearing there must be an error, maybe a NullReferenceException message? Does the signal smoke or just roll on the floor ?

the smoke signal smokes until the timer runs out.. just no heli arrives

I'll throw another and check server logs

I promise you, nothing in console or log. 

found the issue

Earlier console was spammed and crashed the server, error below;

it was suggested that I set heli.lifetimeminutes: "0" until the rust/oxide problem could be fixed.

"Map Scale Distance Away to Spawn Helicopter (Default: 1.25 = 1.25 x Map Size Distance)": 0.0,

Set this to 0.0 lie this, then throw and see if it spawns directly above

Also, I have an idea. Hit me up on Discord so I can give you a modified copy to try

Solved, heli.lifetimeminutes ConVar was set to 0, so heli was immediately retiring.
