German Helicopter Mod Showcase and Suggestion!

Recommended Posts

Description of the idea: Hello, Prometheus. I would like to suggest an LVS helicopter mod that is safe and tested within the Berlin map! 

Why should this be added?:  This helicopter mod could add an entirely new aspect to the Luftwaffe/aviation roleplay in general! Here are some bulletins of pro's of adding this wonderful mod to the server:

  • The mod enhances roleplay and would make the Luftwaffe a viable faction with actual aerial vehicles instead of the duct tape aircraft floaties everyone tries to build.
  • The mod can be utilized as an escort vehicle for command staff for events and there could be fleets to fill the skies
  • The Air Traffic Control tower would finally have a use in directing Berlin air traffic and the Ministry of Aviation would finally have a paperwork and administrative control over the aircraft actually within the city!
  • The aircraft can hold up to 10 people and can be utilized for paratroopers/divers (helldiver moments) for military training exercises
  • The aircraft can fly almost ANYWHERE and fits at a perfect level within the skybox. It also has easy controls for flying and landing
  • The mod is time period accurate and would be an awesome intro to actual aviation on the server
  • Increases job (i.e. Luftwaffe mechanics and technicians)

What negatives could this have?:  Of course with all good things that can be ruined, there are cons:

  • During a civil war, the military would have a massive advantage over the MOI with this kind of aircraft
  • Minges and other people who are not of the Luftwaffe or authorized to fly could steal the aircraft and crash it around the city
  • One area (the train track checkpoint) does not have a high enough skybox or enough room to fly over
  • The helicopter if not controlled properly or flown by the right people can crash anywhere in the city or forest
  • The helicopter does not stop when it goes inside water (a simple script should fix this just as you have the cars)
  • Brand new enlisted men trying to steal the aircraft itself as well

Additional information: 

Please do watch the showcase and let me know what you think!: 


BUT also suggestions for fixing the cons:
 

  • Give the MOI an aviation wing either within the SL or the Landespolizei (it'd make sense as the police can use these choppers for patrols or the SL can use them for SL drills and operations)
  • Helicopter vehicles should be on a whitelist  which means only certain players may hop inside the aircraft. For example: joeschmo (steam ID) whitelisted for a helicopter vehicle. It is also more accurate that only officers should be flying the aircraft too, limiting the amount of people even able to use the aircraft.
  • Train track checkpoint should be designated as a no-fly area
  • The helicopter should be heavily controlled by officers only. As I've said it is more accurate and it will limit the number of people flying the actual aircraft.
  • The helicopter should be scripted to blow up when in the water just like the other vehicles on the server
  • Brand new people should work their way up to an officer to specialize in being a pilot.

    That's all Prometheus. Do consider. And thank you!
