Summary

Spawns AI gunship helicopters near players on a configurable timer, using DarcChopper search-and-destroy behaviour to hunt targeted players.

Official Workshop description

Description MBS Auto Spawn AI Helicopters adds dynamic AI helicopter attack waves to your Arma Reforger server. The system randomly selects eligible real players in the world, spawns an AI helicopter 700-900 metres away, and sends it on a Search and Destroy mission against that player’s location. Players inside the HQ/start base safe zone are protected and will not be selected as targets. Server owners can configure wave timing, helicopters per wave, active helicopter limits, spawn distance, and spawn height. Included helicopter entities: USSR_Mi8MT_Armed_Gunship_HE_Patrol USSR_Mi8MT_Armed_Gunship_HEDP_Patrol Default settings: Random wave timer: 30-60 minutes Helicopters per wave: 1 Maximum active helicopters: 5 Spawn distance: 700-900 metres HQ safe zone: 100 metres For support, visit: www.MBSbattalion.com and find a link to our discord

Confirmed HQ safe-zone targeting protection is active.
Players inside the 100m HQ/start base safe zone are skipped during target selection.
If a targeted player moves into HQ, the helicopter attack waypoint is held and the system searches for a valid target outside the safe zone.
