HelicopterRevival


Adds a fully animated attack helicopter to the game. Ideal for getting from A to B quickly, exploring the map, building islands and nuking biters from the sky. Originally forked from Kumpu with fixes for Factorio 0.18.2+, but adding some enhancements of my own as well.

b Equipment missing from the grid

3 months ago

When you pick up a helicopter in your inventory, items from the equipment grid are not returned to your inventory.

Yeeeah... This is a little bit of complicated subject, and I'm pretty sure that's the reason why the original mod has done away with equipment grid.

That's because when you place a helicopter, it spawns a new instance of all elements that make the helicopter rather than respawn the object that you have in inventory. If you hover over the helicopter in your inventory, the EG content is there. I've been reluctant to touch that part, but I guess I'll have to address it sooner or later.

But it's very likely there will be no releases before Factorio 2.0.
