Edit $profile:\CZAutoz_Heli\mod_config.json to change settings that apply to all helicopters on your server. Delete this file and restart to regenerate it with all default values.
These settings are safe to adjust freely — they control gameplay features like cargo, repair, fuel warnings, logging, and server-wide toggles. Unlike the per-helicopter flight physics values, there is no risk of breaking flight behaviour by changing these.
When the mod updates and adds new config keys, they are automatically inserted into your existing mod_config.json. Your custom values are never overwritten.

Extra Cargo Modules

Each extra module adds 1,000 inventory slots. Maximum 10 modules per helicopter.
