About Balloon Heist Event Christmas Update
The Balloon Bandits are trying to escape the island in hot air balloons after being spotted stealing treasure from the monuments. They’re heavily armed, so players need to plan carefully, taking out the ringleader first will make it harder, as the other bandits will scatter. When a bandit is killed or a balloon is destroyed, the electromagnet deactivates and releases the loot crate, causing it to fall to the ground. Once the main loot is secured, jets will be called in to eliminate the remaining bandits.
Key Features:
AutoLaunch: Set intervals for automatic event triggers.
Dynamic Balloon Formation: Outer balloons follow the central balloon and scatter when the leader is killed.
Dynamic Movement: Balloons adjust to changing wind speeds and directions, creating a realistic flight pattern.
Customizable Loot & NPCs: Adjust items, health, and NPC equipment.
High-Risk Airstrike Finale: Jets and rockets add a thrilling climax.
Admin Commands: Quick control for starting and stopping the event.
Compatible with Oxide & Carbon Servers
