Our patrol heli crates are lootable immediately by other players despite being owner locked in the config. This seems to be a recent issue over the past couple of months, before that it was fine for years. Is this a possible bug, or am I doing something wrong? Here is my heli config:

  "Helicopter Settings": {
    "Messages": {
      "Broadcast Kill Notification To Chat": true,
      "Broadcast Kill Notification To Killer": false,
      "Broadcast Locked Notification To Chat": true
    },
    "Damage Lock Threshold": 0.2,
    "Harvest Too Hot Until (0 = Never)": 480.0,
    "Lock For X Seconds (0 = Forever)": 600,
    "Remove Fire From Crates": false,
    "Lock Heli From Convoy Plugin": false,
    "Lock Heli At Harbor": false,
    "Lock Heli From Personal Heli Plugin": false,
    "Block Looting Only": true,

  },

hi, it depends what heli the plugin is from or what plugin may be affecting the heli causing mine to not lock it
I would confirm another plugin by unloading any heli plugins first, if this does not help then unload anything else that may interfere
please do so even if you think you have no plugins that would do this

"Allow Locking Heli With These Skins": [0], has a default value of 0 which mustn't be removed or vanilla heli will not lock. if another plugin has a heli with a skinID then you can add it to this list, but they may not document that. if not, you can search their plugin .cs for .skinID = (note that does have a space at the end) and get that from whatever skinID they assign to a heli in their code. you don't need to change their code.

Hi, I'm having a similar issue. I checked the convoy helicopter and it's looting (it has the lock disabled because it doesn't have a pvemod, so the loot defender should be taking control), and players are saying the tank is also looting.
The loot defender's config is set to lock the convoy tank and helicopter. Could it be because I have the "Prevent loot boxes if convoy is moving" option disabled in the convoy? Or is there something else going on? Here is my config

heya I'll check it out :)

Doesn't lock vanilla heli crates for me as well. It worked before, can't recall after which wipe it is broken.
Also I'm on latest 2.2.7 version, but I don't see as setting called ""Allow Locking Heli With These Skins", only for supply drop.

hi, bradley and heli will have those options in the next update
