KEEP CRAFTING UNDER CONTROL

Limits that stay with the blueprint.

Set the success ceiling and craft allowance for your Helicoprions. HCC follows the original blueprint through direct crafting and Library Storage, so linked benches cannot create a separate allowance.

At zero, choose whether the tracked blueprint remains visible at 0/max or is removed after its final craft.

Persistent allowance

New tracked blueprints receive your configured craft limit, preserved across transfer, relink, reload, and restart.

Library-aware

Direct and linked Library Storage crafting check the same original blueprint allowance.

Zero is your choice

DestroyExhaustedBlueprints defaults to false. Keep an exhausted blueprint at 0/max or opt into removal.

Helicoprion Crafting Control · features and setup

HCC is a free ASAAPI plugin for controlling Helicoprion crafting. It can cap the success ceiling, give each new tracked blueprint a persistent craft allowance, show remaining crafts, and enforce the same allowance when the blueprint is used through Library Storage.

Install or upgrade

Stop the server and back up the plugin folder and world.

Install the current ASAAPI release, then copy the HelicoprionCraftingControl release folder into ShooterGame/Binaries/Win64/ArkApi/Plugins/.

Move the old HelicopterLimiter folder outside Plugins; do not run both DLLs.

Edit config.json, start the server, and verify one fresh blueprint before returning to normal use.

Useful settings

MaxCraftChancePercent: success ceiling from 0–100; lower natural chances remain lower.

MaxCraftingsPerBlueprint: allowance for new tracked blueprints, from 1 to 1,000,000.

ShowCraftCounter: displays remaining/max crafts such as 49/50.

BlockLevelUpsAtCap: blocks success-stat level-ups at the cap.

DestroyExhaustedBlueprints: retain an exhausted blueprint at 0/max, or restore ASA removal after its final craft.

Reload and diagnose

After editing the config, send HCC.Reload through RCON. Helicoprion.Apply reapplies settings to loaded Helicoprions, and Helicoprion.Inspect writes a diagnostic report beside the DLL. Do not hot-unload the DLL; use a graceful server shutdown. Existing blueprints keep their original allowance, so changing the configured number applies to newly tracked blueprints rather than refilling old ones. Renewal tokens, shop pricing, and renewal commands are not included in this build.
