HelicopterRevival

Adds two fully animated helicopters 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. NOW also includes API for other mod authors to register their own helicopters!

FAQ

What is this madness?

HelicopterRevival is a mod that was taken over from Kumpu, more specifically from https://mods.factorio.com/mod/Helicopters, updated for Factorio 0.18, and with time fixed some other things as well.

Will you make it work with [insert mod name here]?

Maybe. It depends on the mod itself.

What about VehicleWagon?

Nope. VW strictly denies winching the helicopter onto the vehicle.

Krastorio 2 support?

Already there.

SeaBlock?

Rolled out in 0.2.2

I have an idea for the mod...

Throw it into the discussion pile. I may attend it later if I have time... Or, you can fork my github repo and throw a pull request my way. Both ways are welcome.

More models?

Unlikely... I'm not a 3D modeler, so... But the newly added API allows other mod authors to register their own helicopters!
