Can we look forward to having the new Attack Heli become available in the near future, post wipe?  I'm looking forward to this vehicle if it's released next month. 

What say you?

I should be adding it yea, may have a config setting to disable specifically the personal/attack heli for those who don't want users to have it, but want them to have everything else. I also will need to fix the fact that the plugin will likely not compile when the update comes out since I believe the minicopter object's name is switching to like 'personalhelicopter' or something.

Sorry for the extremely long response, but heres some extra info about the newest version on GitHub as well :)

I, unfortunately, haven't been able to test as much for the past couple of days though as my tugboats on my local server are just non existant and have no idea the cause. (Edit: Turns out it was my config, i set the distance to spawn it at like 1000+.) I did post an updated version of the plugin on my github, but I think I have an even more updated/professional copy since I requested to claim the plugin and wanted it to be less janky lol, but can't put it out yet without confirming its just my local sever having the issues.

In the one on my github, I changed how the plugin loads itself as well as how it works when a player connects, which resulted in me removing that hook entirely to help with hook times for the plugin. This massively improved hook times, as it now only buys the vehicles when you attempt to spawn them. This also means it should be storing less on your servers since the vehicles it stores in your data will only be vehicles they've purchased, which means less since typically a user doesn't use every vehicle in the plugin. The plugin used to purchase all vehicles for a user on connection/join if they had the all vehicles permission. 

The plugin loads as a coroutine now instead of just doing a foreach/for loop over the vehicles, and to fix any problems while it iterates over it slower, I added check to see if its actually finished before attempting to recall/spawn a vehicle as otherwise it will put an error in your console when you're still loading the plugin and a user attempts to recall/spawn a vehicle.

I also added a new feature to hopefully prevent some lag/slow recalling of vehicles, as when you recall the vehicle it kinda gets dragged across the map and can cause issues, example being if you spawned a hot air balloon at your feet and it came from across the map, it could put you in a god like state (not health wise) that would allow you to view the map from way above, and the height depended on where you recalled from kinda and where the balloon was originally.

Oh also extra message directly to you in relation to the issue you had with not being able to spin your helicopter: I think I may have had it defaulted to 0 rotation speed on the plugins side of it, and I think I have fixed it in the version on github.

Thanks for your reply.  My Tugs have been spawning fine.  I do know that there has been a bit of lag when the vehicle is left across the map.  I haven't the joy of recalling a HAB, not many people use them anyway. 

Thanks for the heads up and the reply was perfect

I believe my tug issue was due to me changing the spawn distance for Tugboats to be 1000+ for testing, but I had forgotten I even did so. Ah, if you want, you can enable the config setting that changes it from being recalled, to be killed and then respawned instead :) Though for tugboats, I still have it recall it for now, but I have plans to make it check if theres any added items on the tugboat, and if not, just kills and spanws it, if there are, then recall it, just never got to it yet. Haha yea people tend to not use HABs, always a bit of fun though to fly around in em.

Thanks! I appreciate that :)

Looks like they got the Sept 7 fix for the Forced Update.  I'll be waiting for anything you can do for us for the Attack Helicopter.  Thank you in advance!

Will work on it once I get home (will be a while til then), but just pushed my GitHub fix for Force Wipe for users who use my version. I hope to have the personal helicopters done by tonight or tomorrow.

Will be adding a prevention feature for rockets being put into the inventory since the server I use it on will be disabling incen rockets for performance reasons.

I had this message after installing your github version. " Error while compiling VehicleLicence: The type or namespace name 'MiniCopter' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) | Line: 450, Pos: 38".
I thought I heard FP changed the name of the minicopter, I will try and fix it in the meantime.

Will push a fix for that on uMod, just got able to maintain it a few mins ago.

Thank you for taking over this awesome plugin and keeping it alive, you Rock!!

Does this wipe have tugs?

Does this wipe have tugs?

Yes, I've had em added in my version since the update. Please let me know of any issues you encounter (if any) on a help request!

which file do I download, link please?

I actually posted the wrong one at first, had the one for prior to force-wipe opened, is fixed now, can just click download and it will be the correct one

Its still giving me this error,  "Error while compiling VehicleLicence: The type or namespace name 'MiniCopter' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) | Line: 450, Pos: 38".    I deleted my lang file and configs and tried it again, but it still gives this message. EDIT: Nevermind, I see you updated it again to fix it.

thanks
