None at all. I had 16 of them, seemed every other one just never showed up. I would destroy it, loot crates and the gibs, then call the next. 

I looked at the map, didn't;t notice any debris fields, so not sure where they were going.

You can only call once active Patrol, otherwise they can crash your server throwing severals.

Once the patrol is destroy you can call again, you get the messages in the chat log and also you get the signal back to your inventory

I know that. I call, destroy, loot, clean gibs with a jackhammer, call next. When I call the next, it says it is coming. I wait and.... nothing. I toss one and it says one is active., wait 30 seconds and ross again, says active, every 30 seconds or so I toss until it says one is coming again and there's a 30% chance that it actually shows up.

I was thinking maybe it was being shot down before it reached me but I see no debris field on the map. I was the only one active on the server when I was doing them. It's all good. The signals seem to be east ro find so no one can complain if one doesn't show up.

Hey Ghost, sorry I missed your response, are you still facing the same issue? 

Hi, installed this yesterday, tested couple of times seemed to work absolutely fine so i added to be bought from vending machines for players. Just had a message from a player saying that normal airdrop signals are now SimplePatrol Heli ones as well..ie they threw airdrop (pink one) and Patrol Heli now spawns and attacks them......Does this plugin replace default airdrop as well? Ok if it does but wasn't expecting it to. lol

Не хотите ли вы добавитЬ поддержку команд через RCON?

the ideea is great but sometimes no heli comes , just a supply drop or both 

Could you please add an argument to helisignal so that it will spawn that number of them? For example, "helisignal 10" would give 10 signals. Thanks!

I don't know the plugin you are mentioning, but when we spawn an element including the patrol the game assign a specific ID but it will change every time. Maybe you have an example to know what are you referring 

Hello,
this is a LootDefender config file part, which mentions lockouts,
actually its asking, for an  "entitie skin id",
idk what does mean,
but if its random, it wont work, right?
i was trying to lockout players from shooting over and over Vanilla Patrol and Not SimplePatrolSignal Patrols.
