In Flight Heli Repair

xInFlightHeliRepair
xInFlightHeliRepair is a Rust plugin that allows players to repair an attack helicopter while mounted or in the air as a passenger, using a hammer and consuming a configurable resource (e.g., metal fragments). It includes plenty of customization options.
This overrides the new behavior introduced in the “Pivot or Die” update that prevents players from repairing the attack helicopter while in flight.
