Using the setting to target the patrol helicopter is also targeting the MegaDrones 

I'm not able to reproduce this issue. Do you have the Targetable Drones plugin installed? That will allow Mega Drones to be targeted.

Yes I had that installed so MegaDrones can be targeted by static sam sites (pve server) but since allowing players to have the permission for patrol heli with this plugin it's now targeting MegaDrones from player Sam's 

Targetable Drones doesn't care whether a sam site is static or not. It's not PvE-aware either. While EnableSAMTargeting is true in TargetableDrones.json, all sam sites (including player-deployed and static) will target all drones, with some exceptions (bypass permission, and if the drone controller/owner matches the sam site owner or is friend/team/clan/ally with sam site owner). Perhaps one of the exception conditions changed, or perhaps another plugin was previously inferfering.

I'm don't see how Heli Sams could cause sam sites to target mega drones, and I haven't been able to reproduce it. Please share what troubleshooting you have done to narrow down that it's caused by Heli Sams. For example, have you temporarily unloaded Heli Sams and found that Mega Drones were no longer being targeted?

i will do some more testing, i have been using MegaDrones & TargetableDrones since they were released and never had this issue, ive been using HeliSams for quite some time also, but only for static sams to target player owned ch47

ive just allowed the permission for player sams to target patrol heli and this issue started

I will do some more testing to confirm but its never been a issue before but now its causing a issue for players

Hey, just following up to see if you have troubleshooted this further.

Also just a note, using Targetable Drones, player Sam Sites should target Mega Drones, so the current behavior you are seeing is the intended behavior, so if you need different behavior (i.e., player Sam Sites to not target Mega Drones), then a solution will need to be developed (in one of those plugins) to accommodate that.

Hey, sorry been really busy since so not had time to do further testing, I have some free time today so will do some and let you know the outcome.

I was thinking though that originally maybe TruePVE was the 3rd party plugin that was possibly preventing the player Sam's targeting, now I've allowed the heli Sam's plugin to target patrol heli its maybe overriding what TruePVE was blocking 

Did some testing with this and when using TruePVE & TargetableDrones players samsites do not target the MegaDrone, but if the owner of the samsite has the permission `helisams.patrolheli` then there sam sites will target players on MegaDrones.
