Make grapple hook stay in place longer?

[Tirak]

you can, its like a vehicle

... If Rudd says so the I guess I can believe it. But if I end up seeing that four minute spawn time again, heads will roll.

Agree with OP.
Kit should not disappear when you die, it should stay until someone destroys it.
Would also be good if grapple hook equipped troops could pick up grapples deployed by other dead troops, and redeploy
Knife to destroy it would be good.
