Has anyone else had transport helicopters crash?

[bhoefert]

I had one of my transport helicopters crash, upside-down. I can't delete it, and restarting the game and loading the save again doesn't clear it. I've submitted this as a bug report.

Has anyone else had this happen, and if so, have you managed to clear the helicopter? I mean, I offer my most sincere condolences to the pilot, but he's kind of blocking one of my paths, and the show must go on...

Oh. I see Masrani was visiting your park. At least he missed the aviary this time.

Never saw that. But I did see some Apatosaurs freak out when I airlifted them to an enclosure. It was pretty funny.

I had one crash on NW USA into a troodon pen by the access gate. Rangers were getting stuck cause they wanted to go through the gate and cut straight to the post rather than go around the chopper; and yes, the chopper has a footprint.

Thank you for the report. Now that it's in the Issue Tracker someone will investigate it further

Im having a similar issue. All my transport heles have stopped, either mid air or on the ground (see circled on the image provided). Because of this i am now unable to transport ANY dinos from any location.. no transport heles move. i am almost at the end of a hard mode challenege which ive been on for what feels like an eternity and now i am unable to complete this and probably have to start over again as i cant transport new dinos to their enclosures or get them to the med centre etc...

Is there a way to fix this in game or do i really have to start over


For some reason i cant upload an image as it says error. esssentially i have 4 heles on the ground and one mid air just stopped.

Not a transport heli in my case, it's the expedition heli pilot I gotta fire it seems...

It somehow started drifting over the exhibit after I sent it out on an expedition, then the next time I loaded it just fell down and has been stuck there ever since. At least it's not getting in the way of anything where it is now

Weren't helicopters supposed to be damaged? Did you decide to scrap that feature?

I've seen the big ones freeze mid air, meshed together, because I was airlifting multiple dinos from the hatchery. Shooting them with a ranger chopper fixed that for me.

Sorry for the necrothread but anybody got a fix for this? Got a Torosaurus and a crashed Helicopter right in the middle of my park.

The team has been made aware of this and it's being looked into. In the future, please don't necro threads that are almost a year old. It's better to make a new thread
