all slingload cargo types from editor class objects (containers) stopped working!

NOTE they have all the "DLC Helicopters" Icon!

slingload cargo net from editor class ammo stopped working!

NOTE this too have the "DLC Helicopter" Icon!

the only editor class that still works are the slingload supports containers.

and "cargo that stopped working".

development branch 1.47.131133 has same problem as stable,

certain cargo types stopped to work with slingload.

I can't see any problems with the sling load module, but the objects have changed.

In your test mission the metal case and the bigger 20' container doesn't work in 1.44 either.

Don't know if some of the changes are intentional, but at least the name "cargo net" suggests that the object should be sling-loadable.

did you read my post? did you use test mission?

all containers placed HAVE the slingload icon "DLC Helicopters", so they should all work

and did work previous update 1.46.

Yes, I tried you mission.

The icon means that they're part of the Helicopters DLC, not that they can be slingloaded. For example, the office chair has the icon, but you can't sling load it.

I just tried this in 1.44, and the bigger container and the steel case did not work there.

there is a bug, have a mission under development using from editor class ammo the cargo net.

until update of yesterday I could slingload it every time played mission

I can even post you a screenshot of action.

now since update of yesterday I'm not able any more ... so how you explain that?

I wasn't saying you're wrong, I confirmed that you're right.

But the problem isn't the sling load module, it's that the objects are "broken". Like the cargo net for example.

I hope they're going to fix this, using those cargo nets for resupply are pretty important for our group :)

did hotfix from today fix the slingload problem?

can not test myself switched back to Legacy Build 1.44 and I won't switch back to 1.46 at least for now.

Small objects really don't work. Shouldn't they be liftable even without the sling load module? (What does it do anyway?) Going to upvote your ticket.

As far as I know, the module is only used for attaching a load immediately without picking it up. For example, you can start a mission with a sling load.

The module is basically just a script command heli setslingload cargo

There is something wrong with certain items, like the cargo net; it still has the sling load memory points defined in the config but you can't pick it up.

Indeed appears to be broken in 1.46 stable

B_CargoNet_01_ammo_F

O_CargoNet_01_ammo_F

I_CargoNet_01_ammo_F

are no longer slingable. Seems like a bug/mistake to me.

The cargo nets and some other objects are sling loadable again in today's dev branch.
