Does anyone know why I am not getting a Patrol Helicopter Death Note? It has been happening since the last update in September 2023, before then I used to get them.

Same here. Mini copters show on livemap as well as the patrol heli. lol

I changed Helicopter to PatrolHelicopter after reading a hint in one of the posts,

That was my post...and no...that didn't work.

Have they changed the entity name with the latest update? That is all I cant think of

Same here. I know they changed the name but where do we change it in Death Notes?

Plugin was updated but still does not show kill/killed

Yup saw that .. and agree still doesn't show patrolhelicopter deaths or even deaths by the patrolhelicopter ... I miss it so ...

Bump .. just checking anyone found an answer yet? I guess its do with FP renaming the entity to something else as the new player AttackHelicopter turned up last update ..

Haven't seen any answers as of yet.

These are the only references to copter/heli in the file:

Line 169: // Ignore deaths which don't involve players or the helicopter which usually does not track a player as killer
Line 171: data.VictimEntityType != CombatEntityType.Helicopter)
Line 430: // Entity may be null for helicopter or bradley, see HandleExceptions(...)
Line 432: combatEntityType != CombatEntityType.Helicopter &&
Line 465: case CombatEntityType.Helicopter:
Line 466: return "Helicopter";
Line 486: Helicopter = 0,
Line 573: if (data.HitInfo?.WeaponPrefab?.ShortPrefabName?.StartsWith("rocket_heli") ?? false)
Line 575: data.KillerEntityType = CombatEntityType.Helicopter;

Unfortunately, I am at a loss as the fix for this isn't like the other plugin heli fixes.

still no fix..

The weird thing is: Sometimes, when the heli kills someone - that is visible in chat. But only... Sometimes? No idea what it depends on. But the message when the heli is shot down never comes... Not even sometimes.

I noticed death notice only works if heli killed player with their rockets (not turret). I guess the rocket damage has different entity name than the actual heli's entity. I tried to fix the code myself but it was way too complicated
