About HeliSignals​

Heli Signals allows players with permission to call an Attack Helicopter to their location with a custom Supply Signal, where it will engage players and patrol, allowing players to fight it to win the valuable Heli crates.
The plugin comes with 4 default heli profiles, Easy, Medium, Hard and Elite, each with their own custom supply signal skin. Server owners can add as many profiles as they like in the config by copying and pasting an existing profile within the config and editing to suit. This does require the server owner to create their own custom skin for the inventory item.
There is also an option to have a BotReSpawn profile spawn at the crash site, just set the BRS profile name in the config.

NOTE ABOUT SHOPS:

The profile name in the config should match the Custom Supply Signal name which the shop gives to the player. The Helicopter Name is separate and can be set independently from the Signal item.

For Other Developers:

The following hook is available to use in your plugins to check custom Supply Signals or Patrol Helicopters to avoid conflict with your plugins:

object IsHeliSignalObject(ulong skinID)

This will return true if the item is a Bradley Drop item/entity, or null if not.
