CanHelicopterStrafe

OxideCarbonVehicle

Called to determine whether to helicopter strafe.

Return true to allow the action and false to block it.

object CanHelicopterStrafe(PatrolHelicopterAI patrolHelicopterAI)

Works — the game method in this build is the one the hook was written for.

Parameters

patrolHelicopterAI: PatrolHelicopterAI

Return value

objectThe returned value replaces the game result; null lets the game decide.

Example

object — you can affect the game: return a value to change or cancel the action.

private object CanHelicopterStrafe(PatrolHelicopterAI patrolHelicopterAI)
{
    Puts("CanHelicopterStrafe");

    // change nothing — the game continues as usual
    return null;

    // to affect the game:
    // return false; // your value instead of the game result
}

Works in both Oxide and Carbon: Carbon loads Oxide plugins as is.
