Hi , :)
I start playing Project reality a few month ago and I notice that transport helicopters doesn't have ropes system for deployng infantry units on battlefield without landing. I think that there is that kind of deploying soldiers and vehicles :m1helmet: in real life and think that will be a good idea to be add in the next updates of the game. My idea is to add two ropes from both sides of transport helicopter while it is hovering 25-30 meters from the ground or rooftops and infantry squads can sliding down . It can be used by inf squads to move to areas that transport helicopters are not be able to land like mountain's ridge small rooftops. And you can add a button for pilot to activate ropes while hovering or if there is no squads to be transport to use these ropes to transport vehicles to team's FOBs. If you want look at this links https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_helicopter and this https://www.barry.ca/helicopter/military-product.asp ... and this too https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cargo_hook_(helicopter)

I agree with OP, this would be an amazing feature of PR. Devs can do it right? I mean it surely can't be hardcoded. Attach rope to chopper = win.

Serious question from someone who always sees these fastrope references on here and never understood why. How come these never made it into the game?

I believe it's BF2 and engine limitations / hardcoded stuff / etc.
