Helicopter Hide

Be indoors, sheets up, no engine, no gun. It is a horde delivery service.

Best for: Runs that go outside to 'see the heli'

Project Zomboid helicopter event

Step-by-step

  1. 1

    Know if the event is on in sandbox. If yes, plan the day before it flies.

  2. 2

    Stay inside a sheeted house. Do not loot 'quickly' during the pass.

  3. 3

    No generator in the open, no car idling, no shotgun.

  4. 4

    After it leaves, wait. The crowd it brought is still pathing.

  5. 5

    If you are in woods or a farm, same rule โ€” indoors or you are the destination.

Tips

  • If the helicopter event is on, be indoors with a plan.
  • Louisville makes this a city-sized problem. Edge suburb or skip the week.
  • Multiplayer: agree who is allowed to start a generator that day.
