Is there a way to set it so that all of your paratroopers open their chutes when you open yours? I hate opening mine late and having to wait forever for my fellow paratroopers to touch down. If there isn’t a way to do this, I think DF should make make this possible.
you no longer can.
used to be a " thing ", but resulted in the whole squad dying because they opened the parachute at the same time that the player would ( with sometimes a delay ).
and if the first player either failed or opened the parachute too late, he would most likely end up dying along side the whole squad.
so that was removed and set to a specific height.
i guess sort of a nerf too since that height was slightly raised at what point bots would open their chute. ( i guess because of berlin or stalingrad buildings which are quite tall )
They should lower the plane and force you to deploy parachute instantly like irl
Paratroopers used static lines and that should be what is in the game.
Yea I agree
Same with other things, like I would want some actions to be mirrored by the squad, like drinking, for example. They need to be hydrated properly, damn it! What am I supposed to do, cycle through all of them to drink? Takes forever, simply undoable. Then what I have to do instead is that I have to wait for them to catch up with me or mysteriously lose them all because I ran too far ahead, and could not protect my squad.
No, that was never the case. The AI always pulled their chutes at a fixed height. But some of them tend to die however.
