Major Update #1 (v 1.0):
Completely redesigned [b]Air-Drop System[/b].
New [b]Electric Connectors[/b] have been added to the [b]Cargo Bay[/b] of the [b]Airbus A400M[/b].
These Electric Connectors allow to do [b]Staggered Air-Drops[/b] (each Crate/Vehicle is slightly delayed from the previous one, see GIF), by adjusting the “[b]Delay[/b]” Property Slider of the [b]Air-Drop Microcontroller[/b] on each Crate/Vehicle Cart (0.5 sec delay works well).
To start the Staggered Air-Drop just press the “[b]Toggle Air-Drop Connectors[/b]” Push Button (in Cockpit, Loadmaster’s Station and Ramps Panel).
Important:
[b]To connect the Crates/Carts[/b] to the new [b]Air-Drop Connectors[/b], remember to press the “[b]Toggle Air-Drop Connectors[/b]” Push Button [b]once[/b] as soon as you enter the Plane (it auto-activates for 20 sec upon spawning, then deactivates).
Moreover, [b]all the ISO Electric Connectors[/b] can now be used to do [b]Staggered Air-Drops[/b] as well (use the same Push Button to initiate the Staggered Air-Drop).
This means [b]any Cargo[/b] you attach to these Connectors can be air-dropped with this new System: you just need to add [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2150827882]this Microcontroller[/url] to control the [b]Electric Connectors on your Cargo[/b]
All the [b]Carts[/b] (Vehicle Cart v2.0, Wide Vehicle Cart v2.0, Cart for RHIB v2.0, Cart for ARGO, Cargo Platform v2.0) have been [b]updated[/b] to integrate the new Air-Drop System, so they can be used to perform [b]Mixed Air-Drops[/b] (both Crates and Vehicles at the same time, see GIF).
Major Update #2 (v 2.0):
Added [b]Rope Anchors[/b] and [b]Rope Inventories[/b].
You can now use the Ropes to secure the Cart to anything you want: be it the Cargo Bay of the Airbus A400M, or any other vehicle (Helicopters, Ships, Trains)!
