Has anyone been able to edit either SOF units or a SOF helo that can unload into either buildings or forest hexes, to represent the fast-ropes and other rappel missions from helos? I haven't been able to figure it out yet.

This would be a nice function. I was trying to do an urban assault with helo insertions and wanted to do this but alas ... doesn't appear possible to me (probably hard coded into what helo can and cannot do -- i.e. cannot land on hexes with anything in them: trees, buildings, etc.)
Thinking about this, would there by any chance be some workaround that would allow to have controllable paradropping helos? I know that there would be asolutely no point to that considering that you can just land the helo and get rid of the various annoyances involved in paradropping, but that could provide a way to drop SF or such (top-notch tough guys anyway, in game terms they'd have o e to avoid breaking three ankles each while ctually dropping on BUA) on any non-landable terrain.
That would be something purely editor-controlled of course.

I'm just tossing that idea into the air, I have positively no idea how that would work, even if it would have any chance to work, ut if anyone fees desperate enough to try something on this line...
