TailLight not working
TailLight not workingNot An Issue
Since you haven't provided any specific information, and since this is the first report of this issue since I last fixed the tail light, all I can do at this point is ask some basic questions to more forward the troubleshooting process.
- Which exact version of the plugin are you using?
- Have you verified that the tail light feature is enabled in the config, and that the plugin has loaded without any errors being printed in the server console?
- Has the tail light feature previously worked on your server? If so when did it stop working?
- Does it consistently not work for all minicopters, or is the issue intermittent? If intermittent, do you notice any patterns about which minicopters it affects, which in-game nights it does not work, or events happening before it stops working?
- What exactly do you mean by "not working"? Is it not spawning, or is it not turning on at night?
- Does your server have night time? The light will only blink at night time.
- Does your server have any sort of feature that skips hours of the day/night cycle? Such features might cause the tail light to fail to turn on sometimes.
Hi @WhiteThunderΒ
Apology for my incomplete question, kindly have a look some of the details below
1. the latest 2.1.2
2. yes, i enabled it in the cfg. loaded without errors
3. I have multiple plugin related into minicopter "spawnmini" and "warcopter" plus yours, I'm guessing one of these has conflict. i will try to remove one of this and reload everything.
4. yes consistently not working.
5. it is spawning and the prefab loads but the blue light is not blinking or no-light
6. server has a frozen day time only.
8. I did try to change it during night but still not working...

thank you so much for your help and contribution for the community.
Since your server does not have a night time, it's expected that the tail light will never turn on. Do you expect the light to be useful during the day?
I will gonna have normal timings by next week, I was wondering if it can just stay on the whole time, I even try changing it to night time and still not triggering to on.
Changing directly to night time usually won't work. Time has to progress toward night time for the light to turn on.
I see, so no chance for it to enable even day... thank you so much for your time tho... greatly appreciated.
Enabling the light during the day could be implemented as a feature, but I think you're the first to suggest that, and I'm not really undestanding what value that adds. If you can explain what value that provides, then we can consider adding a config option for it. First, I suggest you see what it's like when you switch to a normal time cycle, then come back if you still think having the light on during the day would be useful to players.
I was actually making a cinematic promotional video for my server and with the help of that lights it will add some great effects when you can toggle it on any time of day or night, in my case I can control the timing with my server so I don't need to wait till night again to get the shots done, plus it really helps to some server with few pops to have some light in your mini for easy attraction in the air.Β that's my honest opinion but again. thank you for your time and everything. π kudos for you sir.
