Adds additional heli HUD layouts from the HeliHUD package.
HUD Heli is a community add-on for FlightGear. Puts extra helicopter HUD options in the add-on menu instead of per-aircraft copies. PlayBound unzips the add-on into FlightGear's Addons folder, then Play FlightGear — PlayBound passes --addon for each installed module. Mods are versioned separately from the base game — match the recommended engine or client release before joining multiplayer, and keep a clean backup of your settings if you experiment with several packs at once. PlayBound only lists projects that publish redistributable archives or clear external download pages. Always read the upstream README for credits, required assets, and known incompatibilities.
Compatibility: FlightGear 2024.1+ addon module (`--addon`)
