[Suggestion]Parachute drop cargo
I gotta say, I really like your advanced mods, though I haven't gotten around to testing and using Advanced AI Command. :)

I like to ♥♥♥♥ around on a sandbox map (just found one, saves a lot of headaches from starting a zeus gamemode!) with a mate as he's new to the game. And, well, ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ around is half the fun!
Being able to slingload like this is fun!

One thing I miss is having an option to drop slingloaded cargo with parachutes.
Any chance you could implement that? :D

I don't remember which mod and what the name was, but I do remember I used to have a mod that allowed this.

Liking this idea! Would be nice to see in game!

Would you want specific action, or have a chute auto deploy if you release cargo above a certain height?

I'd prefer it as a specific action, so that you could also just ditch cargo without parachutes.
But if the latter is easier to code, I'm happy either way.

I think the mod was the JDS Skycranes or something like that, that put the skycrane heavy lifter up as a NATO helicopter. You could slingload and attach the pods for it on the fly and I really loved it.
We never got around to using it in missions though. Airdropping a few of those containers full of personnel and equipment would have been fun to make a makeshift FOB.

Anyways, I believe that anything that was slingloaded or attached to it and dropped above a certain height would automagically have a parachute and land safely.

Has thus idea progressed at all?
