Heli Signals allows players with permission to call an Attack Helicopter to their location with a custom Supply Signal, where it will engage players and patrol, allowing players to fight it to win the valuable Heli crates. The plugin comes with 8 default heli profiles, Easy, Medium, Hard and Elite, with a duplicate profile of each set up for calling multiple helis at once for each tier. In addition there is also 2 Wave Heli profiles, which will call in a wave of different helis one after the other. Each default profile has it's own custom supply signal skin (below). Server owners can add as many profiles as they like in the config by copying and pasting an existing profile within the config and editing to suit. This may require the server owner to create their own custom skin for the inventory item. Please note: Wave Heli Signals currently only support single heli profiles. Multi heli profiles will only spawn one heli per wave. (This will be updated in future to call multi helis per wave). If you are setting up Multi heli signals, set the global and player limit in the config accordingly. There is also an option to have a BotReSpawn profile spawn at the crash site, just set the BRS profile name in the config. NOTE ABOUT SHOPS: The profile name in the config should match the Custom Supply Signal name which the shop gives the player. The Helicopter Name is separate and can be set independently from the Signal item. Also, when giving players items from shop plugins, if available, I always recommend adding the item to the shop using custom name, skinID etc, rather than the console command, but either will work. Plugin default Supply Signal Skin ID's to add items to various shops, loot plugins, kits etc are: Heli Signal (Easy) : 2920175997 Heli Signal (Medium) : 2920176079 Heli Signal (Hard) : 2920176050 Heli Signal (Elite) : 2920176024 Heli Signal (Expert) : 3099117081 Heli Signal (Nightmare) : 3099117372 Multi Heli (Easy) : 3083234542 Multi Heli (Medium) : 3083234833 Multi Heli (Hard) : 3083234755 Multi Heli (Elite) : 3083234647 Multi Heli (Expert) : 3099124338 Multi Heli (Nightmare) : 3099124426 Heli Wave Signal : 3099117224 Heli Wave Signal (Normal): 3104667036 Heli Wave Signal (Hard): 3104666951 Default Permissions: helisignals.admin (to use give|hsclearcd command) helisignals.buy (to use /hsbuy command) helisignals.bypasscooldown helisignals.easy helisignals.medium helisignals.hard helisignals.elite helisignals.easy_multi helisignals.medium_multi helisignals.hard_multi helisignals.elite_multi helisignals.wave_normal helisignals.wave_hard Please note: Permissions above are with default config, permission for each Heli profile can be customised in the config.

These values CAN be different if you wish: Loot Options: Use the loot item example entries in the default config to create custom loot tables for crates. How to Add Loot Table Items (Example): Default Config: For Other Developers: The following hook is available to use in your plugins to check custom Supply Signals or Patrol Helicopters to avoid conflict with your plugins: object IsHeliSignalObject(ulong skinID) This will return true if the item is a Bradley Drop item/entity, or null if not. Call it directly without referencing the plugin: if (Interface.CallHook("IsHeliSignalObject", skinID) != null) return true; // IsHeliSignalObject Or reference my plugin and call like this: [PluginReference] Plugin HeliSignals; if (HeliSignals.CallHook("IsHeliSignalObject", skinID) != null) return true; // IsHeliSignalObject
