I can't use SHIFT-F anymore to send the nearest heli to me.
This happened after I briefly installed this mod:
https://mods.factorio.com/mod/PersonalTeleporter

I installed that one, started researching it, then uninstalled it again. Now my heli can't get summoned again

EDIT: the mod removed my remote helicopter control, that was the reason. Fixed!

Any chance this is going to get a 0.17 update? I'd hate to lose it, way too much fun.

i second that

Kumpu promised to update the mod in the near future, asking for a git pull request, while there's one already at https://github.com/kumpuu/factorio-helicopters/pulls which just has to be approved as I understand...? There's a seemingly working zipped version at https://mods.factorio.com/mod/Helicopte ... 000b2ca62b (with bugged remote control) if you can't wait.

first of all i like the mod

a thing i could use is some sort of way to refuel at the helipad

You probably are aware, but just thought I'd mention here that the latest version 17.36 broke this mod. I hope it's not a complicated fix, it's such a great mod, I really don't like playing huge bases without it. Thanks for creating and updating it!

Love this mod and from past experience if my game is working I don't update game or mods, so currently my mod works.
Sorry to hear 17.36 beaks it

How do I change key bindings in this mod ?

Here is working code for 0.17.35 https://github.com/blueh0000ff/factorio-helicopters

Edit: I have also now fixed the cameras to follow the helicopters while moving.

edit:removed my post, it has been addressed in mod portal

I got this after updating to 0.3.10

This bug has been fixed in the latest release! Sorry for the inconvenience.

Is it possible to get the helicopter to match the player color scheme like vanilla vehicles? That way I could tell which was my heli after I parked it.

Hm you'd need to create the spritemasks... Lot of work...

Hello!
The mod is very cool.
But I have a question, how did you create helicopter sprites?
What is the camera setting, I want to create a sprite for the Mi-24 helicopter.
But I am not experienced in creating sprites.
Tnank.

@Karakurt I used this tutorial viewtopic.php?t=5336

Just wanted to say THANKS! This is a really fun addition! Been playing with it for hours!

I made a fork to this mod, here:
https://mods.factorio.com/mod/HelicopterRevival

It's updated to 0.18.2+ proper... There are still some things that I'd like to do with it, but for the time being I'm just updating it for the new version of Factorio.
