Hi! Do you have working battery installed and fuel in it? You can access maintaince hatch and check just behind rear doors.

whenever i open the maintenance panel for the helicopter it instantly closes, tomorrow im gonna try to remove mods until the issue fixes itself, is there any known incompatibilities at the moment? as a side note I spawned it in using the "Cheat Menu: Rebirth" mod

I can not say if it is mod incompatibilities or the problem is only in my mod. I used the same mod you use when testing and it was fine. Try to spawn another heli first, before deleting mods. I'll do my best to help you and fix it if it's on my side.

Sometimes it's can fix, if you move vehicle with such trouble a little. Don't know how, but it worked for me many times. With move, I mean, push it with another vehicle

two bugs, one the helicopter will randomly sometimes load in with no model (you just see the shadow on the ground)

two: the helicopter will change skins randomly if you log out and in or leave the area and come back, half of us on the server saw the chopper as black , some saw it as white, others saw it as a medical chopper etc,

the two bugs seem to be related as if you walk far enough away from the chopper it will load back in with a random color skin or no texture.

it works perfectly fine though otherwise

alright this did work i can access the maintinence pannel but it still has a red battery icon and wont take off, its probably one of my other mods but a hotfix adding a battery to the helicopter might fix it im just too lazy to find which mod is doing it

Could you share more details about the modpack you use? Haven't faced this bug yet. Thank you in advance

Have you tried to install car battery on it? With correspondibg mechanics recipe learned and screwdriver in your inventory? Does it missing option to install battery at all?

P.s.
Helis use car battery and I am trying to figure out from what step things go wrong.

@TTAJ1bl4 uhh we play with like 130 mods all added custom by the guy who runs the server, i can maybe procure a list later on when i figure out how but that might be a bit too much work

the easiest way to reproduce this bug would be (on a multiplayer server) spawn in the helicopter, then move several cells away, then move back, you will see the helicopter is now loaded with a new texture, or has no texture at all and is just a shadow.

but i would like to say thanks anyway for this awesome mod, so glad to finally use a chopper with our group of 5+

EDIT: trying to reproduce this bug again today and i can't, no idea why or what might be affecting it, when I logged off last night the chopper was Black, today it is a white medical chopper and no matter how many times i try to reproduce the bug it won't change, and others see it as a white medical chopper now too, so no idea haha.

this must be a problem on my end because it shows the helicopter doesnt even have a battery. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1010398710657720320/1092232121428475967/image.png

The helicopter you spawned is from other mod. It is not supposed to fly. It is just a static model. The heli that can fly is called UH 60 Multi-purpose Helicopter. It comes with ID UHelicopter
