Fixed and updated helicopter mod!

Thanks for inspiration and help with rotating bladed to my codeveloper ????

I full rewrite mod, Add hard math magic (quaternions a crazy thing...). So now you can rotate heli in any direction! Also: - Added Main and secondary blades rotation. (Rotates when you outside of heli too!) - Fixed sound - Better control - Improved spawn - Need read magazine to know how to fly - Better shadow

Controls: E = Enter/exit the helicopter W = Ascend S = Descend A = Yaw to the left (turn left) D = Yaw to the right (turn right) Arrow Left = Roll to the left (moves the helicopter to the left) Arrow Down = Pitch backward (moves the helicopter backward) Arrow Right = Roll to the right (moves the helicopter to the right) Arrow Up = Pitch forward (moves the helicopter forward)

Spawn points: x = 5593, y = 12465 x = 7746, y = 11802 x = 12850, y = 6427

Enjoy and write bug reports!

Known bugs, that i can't fix: - Landing on roofs - Collision with zombies when fly

Patreon Ko-fi Discord

Enjoy!

--------------------------------------------------- Update: - Fixed and improved sound - Improved blade rotation and sound volume when outside - Decreased fuel consume - Increased Heli speed - Other small improvements
