Transport Helo TK'ing

I've been flying choppers a lot lately and I've noticed that it'll occasionally say that I'm damaging a player that I've dropped off not 5 minutes earlier. This only happens when they are harmed when they bail out (due to jumping while I'm mid-landing, or hovering too high) and I believe are harmed by any other way. I've had times where I've even said to have been TK'd even though I dropped the guy off earlier and am alive and well in base. I've also experienced that it says I teamkilled a player that hurt themselves when they bailed too soon to run off and die somehow.

I'm not sure 100% whether these people are bleeding out, taking fall damage elsewhere, or actually getting shot by enemies after they've been harmed by bailing out too soon.

The way the logic works in this engine is that the teamkill/team damage counts towards the last vehicle that injured the player, in this case your helicopter from a bad landing or something similar. I've also seen many times where players pile in the back of a full osprey or chinook, and while the helicopter is in flight, that doesn't end well for them ;)

So if someone bails too quickly, gets harmed, then runs off to get shot by an enemy it's counted as a TK?

If the enemy shot him, then the enemy's weapon is last to cause damage to the player, so the enemy gets the kill. A tk may occur when the passenger bails out too fast (or something similar), gets wounded, and never treats the wound until death.
