Speed not changing
I've edited the config to 2x, 5x, 1000x, 10000x - there is no visible difference in the speed after reloading the plugin via RCON, and spawning a new chopper. The file compiles fine, and reloads without issues.

Current settings:

{
"Mini Max Rotor Speed ( Default : 10 )": 1000000.0,
"Mini Thrust Lerp Speed ( Default : 4 )": 50000.0,
"Mini Time Until Max Rotor Speed ( Default : 7 )": 1.0,
"Mini Motor Force Constant ( Default : 50 )": 100000.0,
"Mini Fuel Per Sec ( Default : 0.50 )": 0.2,
"Scrap Max Rotor Speed ( Default : 4 )": 4000.0,
"Scrap Thrust Lerp Speed ( Default : 4 )": 4000.0,
"Scrap Time Until Max Rotor Speed ( Default : 7 )": 7.0,
"Scrap Motor Force Constant ( Default : 150 )": 0.0,
"Scrap Fuel Per Sec ( Default : 0.50 )": 0.5
}

Am I missing something?

Did you try to descend instead of ascending? Settings are successful but a number like 100000000 is unacceptable, very little change

I still check the plug-in, I'il fix it if I see an error

I went in just about any direction - speeds were the same with the plugin loaded, and unloaded.

That number was just the last attempt - I went from 10 - 100 - 1000 - etc. in 50 increments. Just to test.
We did end up finding out that the speeds do indeed work - IF the chopper is on the ground. So basically it's a REALLY fast gokart, but flying is unaffected.
will be ready tomorrow, I will publish tomorrow
