I want to inform the players, that the Patrolheli was killed or the Patrolheli has leaved the island. Sounds easy ... but in this case i always got the information that the Heli was killed although it just leaves the island... pls. help! 😩

void Broadcast(string msg, params object[] args)
{
    PrintToChat(msg, args);
}

void OnEntityLeave(TriggerBase trigger, BaseEntity entity)
{
    if (entity is BaseHelicopter)
    {
        Broadcast("Patrolheli leaves.");
    }
}

void OnEntityKill(BaseNetworkable entity)
{
    if (entity is BaseHelicopter)
    {
        Broadcast("Patrolheli was killed.");
    }
}

This plugin performs this function, you could either use it or inspect the code:

https://umod.org/plugins/gui-announcements

OnEntityLeave is called when an entity leaves a trigger not when they are leaving the map. Instead you should use:

object OnHelicopterRetire(PatrolHelicopterAI helicopter)
{
    Puts("OnHelicopterRetire works!");
    return null;
}

OnEntityKill is called every time an entity is killed, this is being called when the helicopter leaves because the helicopter leaves the map and is then destroyed.

void OnEntityKill(BaseHelicopter entity)
{
    //send chat message.
}​

@0x89A: Thanks! That helps me a lot.

No problem. The OnHelicopterRetire hook wasn't in the hook docs at the time so I'm not surprised you missed it. It's been added now though :)
