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. Now 84% less buggier!
Really love this mod.
I do have a few suggestions:
- An option to require having a helicopter be at a helipad to fly to you or a specifc location.
- Players should not be able to use the "Send nearest available heli" feature without a Helicopter remote control in their inv/armour.
- Helicopters have a return to nearest helipad option/button and possibly do this after a certain time delay.
- Helipads create/remove a new tag on big map upon creation/removal.
- Helipads have blinking lights.
If you're able to update the "https://mods.factorio.com/mod/LiftoffEnhanced" mod, that would be awesome. The mod dev seems to have abandonned it and SuicidalKid (Aircraft mod dev) stated that he's bad at scripting.
Hi,
Your suggestions sound reasonable. I'm not sure if the blinking lights are possible without some more hacks though.
As for updating liftoff enhanced, I don't think I'll do it. I'm busy with other stuff and if Suicidal really wants it, learning scripting isn't that hard.
