Are helicopters working?

[USER1302289 6]

Hi!

Could someone please confirm that helicopters are added to the mod and fully working as of 1.7.2.4?

I heard roumers that the helicopters won't be working until the majority of the servers had been updated.

And how does the spawn work? I know that they won't respawn until one of the helicopters are either destroyed or abandoned but do they spawn at random or do they all spawn at the same time? :)

Reason to why I am asking is because my group have collected all parts required to fully repair a broken helicopter and we're all waiting at different helicopter spawn locations until our server updates.

Thanks in advance.

Choppers will only spawn when another has been destroyed.

Not sure if there added to 1.7.2.4 haven't seen one yet.

Choppers will only spawn when another has been destroyed.

I am aware of this, I was just wondering if they always respawn after the server restarts or if it's random after they've been destroyed.
