Creation of a new class

Would it be possible to create a COIN Helo class for the next update? It seems like it might be nice to have another basic helo clone for use in OOB editing.

We have the max number of classes that can be created in there now but there already is a COIN Helo class ( 222 )

Is it unfeasible to expand the code to allow for more classes? And I'm already using the COIN Armed Helo (222) class, I was talking about a COIN Helo class. With what I'm trying to do another basic helo class clone would help.

IIRC, there are already 255 different classes; and that's the maximum you can have using 8-bit number code; to get more classes would require changing A LOT of the code in the game to accept the new 16-bit or higher value for classes.

Well if its unfeasible or unrealistic that's fine, I was just curious.
