The helicopter pad on oil platforms are composed of floors making helicopter take-off impossible #88466

Description

@RealMuToZ

Describe the bug

Quite simply the floor of helicopter pads on oil platforms are of the terrain type "floor" which bugs out the game thinking there should be a roof above or something, this makes it impossible to ascend and gives out the message "It would be unsafe to try and ascend when there are obstacles above you."

Using debug and changing the terrain flooring to concrete roof solves the issue

Steps to reproduce

  1. Spawn a helicopter
  2. Land on the helipad at an oil platform in the ocean
  3. Try to take off from the helipad

Expected behavior

I expect that the helicopter would take off since there is open air above
