Try to replicate on a short track on the Caucasus map in single player.

In the past it has been a multiplayer-specific issue (and possibly dedicated server only, versus self-host MP).

It could be related to how forces on the load/cable are interpolated across packets which would become more critical during the final stage of a descent.

ty i have pasted it on to the man that dose our server

i watched him put it down like a baby and vanished then  shot up in the air and around 100 feet in front of chopper

I guess it needs a comment from ED about whether there is a reported general issue with sling-loading on the dedicated server. I assume it's something that was tested in a multiplayer environment initially but maybe some subsequent updates have caused this issue. There's also the collision mesh for the map to be accounted for as well, which could be a 3rd party responsibility for maps like Syria, Germany or Kola.

@BIGNEWY are you aware of an issue with sling-loads on the dedicated server acting erratically when dropped off, even when running a Caucasus mission?

[badatthis]

its on all of the maps we all own if you get the chance could you pls go to GAKK Shack server, and have a look. I am just an old vet form the army. lol not very good with pc things thank you so much

@Laxxor are you still seeing this issue with bouncing cargo?

[Laxxor]

@Moezilla yes, bouncing, sinking and on some occasions trebuchet.  

Still seems linked to desync as it is more likely to happen with a hot-drop (some in at relative speed touch-disconnect), than a slow approach and allowing the cargo to remain stationary for a second or two before disconnect.

Now, if we only could load'em up with some ANFO and a detonators. They could at least they serve some purpose.

If ED would make the cargo events publicly available through the API.. we could...
