Pilots need a parachute

[Carbon27]

Everyone knows that you can eject out of a plane, but you end of falling like a rock. I would like someone to change that. Could pilots, just pilots, have a chute that could deploy in the air that would help them not die from the fall? I'm not sure if its possible, but that would be REALLY awesome.

No I don't think we could implement a parachute that pops out, but a jet-pack and the removal of fall damage could do it.

If you add the collision scale line under the Unit health line, it takes away fall damage. (you can get this line in Jetpack trooper odf)

Oh, and the line in onlinecompatible, but only works if you are the host (and in single player)
only one glitch. Your person doesn't make hurt sounds when someone else hosts.

Just had a completely ridiculous idea.

-A jetpack configuration that's set so that it can't propel you up, but it only slows your fall in midair (because activating a jet in midair does slow your fall slightly)
-A particle effect designed to look like a parachute, that shoots up out of the units backpack/back

The Deka Shield also negates fall damage.

Thats so crazy, it just might work!

Jdee you are a smart guy! I LOVE your idea.

Dang it we need a way to be able to apply SWBFs physics system to something other than chunks.
