Helicopter Gunner + Rope slide. - Approved

[[Lsrcr]Nitro.]

In-Game Name: [Lsrcr]Nitro
Suggestion: This has already been suggested before but I'll re-suggest it. The suggestion is to make it so you can rapple down from a helicopter using a certain CMD once you're in the passenger seat of a helicopter (the CMD will be usable by SWAT).
Someone had already created a script for this as well but I won't post it unless I'm asked to, here's a demonstration video.

Reason: Why do we need it? Well we are SWAT so we should be able to do this kind of stuff just as the SWAT in the singleplayer can.

In-Game Name: [Lsrcr]Nitro
Suggestion: Add a way to shoot from the SWAT maverick as a passenger. How? Well there's also a pre-made script for this which I will post if I'm asked to. Here's a demonstration video.

Reason: Well I think this will make SWAT truly a unique and amazing faction. It will also add the ability for us to use other vehicles other than the usual Sultan. Also, if this is added I think it would only make sense to have the rope slide added as well.

swat will get to op if this will be added...

1) This can cause a few additional bugs but why not if the scripting resources in Lsrcr aren't overloaded. Well, parachutes already exist - allowing you to travel long vertical distances on Y axis: but why not, rope could drop you quickly onto suspects. I like the idea though, very cool. There should be a limitation to not make this overpowered such as taking 20dmg to HP by a fall and not being to use cop commands while on rope.
2) Yes! Adding functional surface area to helicopters is a good idea, SWAT will then use a much wider variety of tactics. However, cons include having a really good heli pilot that has gamesense + you will need a minimum of 2 SWAT members for this to be useable and around 4 SWAT members to be effective (depending on shooting skills and pilot).

Both ideas combine well so +1. SWAT will already get /pull and (maybe) /spikes so I'm not sure if additional cmds such as /rope will come soon. I'm also scared features like these won't be nicely balanced, as Elite wrote "op".

I don't see any OP here. We already have a helicopter to do the "Helicopter Gunner" but it's a bit slower.

I am giving +1 to both of suggestions.

If you're going to say something, please elaborate it.

There's a difference between something you are required to be skilled to do (such as fly this helicopter without making die / explode) and something which is clearly OP (If using the Hunter's weapons on suspects who are on foot / in a vehicle was allowed, this would be indeed OP).

Unless you were thinking of something else.

For the 1st thing, if you'd like to have a few limitations so it will indeed not be OP as you've mentioned, I thought about this:
If you use it you will have a prep time, so you will have to wait 3 seconds before using it (you won't be able to move your character) which will make you vulnerable and when you drop on the ground you have a prep time of 1 second before you can move. There will also be a certain height limit so you can't just rapple off the star tower all the way down to the ground.
