Introduction
Introducing Heli Winch by BKing Development; a script that brings you a working winch/hoist for helicopters in FiveM!
Unlike some other such scripts I have seen for FiveM, this one has fully synced rope physics, can be operated while in motion, and uses the realistic props, animations, and scripting logic from Coastal Callouts to enable various modes including direct hook deployment, a coast guard rescue basket, and a stokes litter with rigging for trauma injuries or mountain rescue.
This is perfect for any sort of rescue of Coast Guard roleplay, from hoisting someone from a cargo ship miles off the shore of Los Santos, to rescuing someone stuck on the side of one of the many cliffs around the map, this script has a purpose in all different types of situations.

Usage
There are multiple commands to this resource, and a few keybinds. All of these are easily configurable using the config.lua file.
There is also a menu that includes all the commands in one place.
These are the default commands and their usages:
-
/winchmenu; opens the winch menu.
-
/winch; creates a winch in front of you.
-
/winchremove; removes the winch you are controlling.
-
/winchattach; attaches you to the nearest winch.
-
/winchattach true; attaches you to the nearest winch.
-
/winchdetach; detaches you from the winch you are attached to.
-
/winchdetach true; detaches you from the winch you are attached to, and sits you inside the helicopter, providing you are close enough.
-
/winchcontrol [serverid]; transfers control to the player with the specified server id.
-
/winchcarry; carries the closest player.
-
/winchlitter; spawns litter onto winch.
-
/winchbasket; spawns rescue basket onto winch.
-
/winchlitterpickup; puts nearest person into litter
-
Up arrow; retracts winch.
-
Down arrow; extends winch.
The easiest way for you to use this resource is with the helicopters in the Coastal Callouts FiveM Package: https://www.lcpdfr.com/downloads/gta5mods/scripts/25465-coastal-callouts/
They all have the required bone so you don’t have the fiddle with coordinates (will be explained in the installation section).
Optimisation
