some heli QOL

[remote swan]

heli grounding:
trying to land a heli (well you shouldn't do that in combat zone though), heli tries to "stick" to ground, which annoy me.
I feel like I might damage the hull landing by the "stick", since by driver perspective, it accelerate towards ground. and it does actually happens.

heli rope:
passenger should have delay to exiting heli, as well as entering any vehicle.
heli pilots sometimes don't drop rope all time for a reason (for me, it just looks lame. have you ever seen goldfishes poop?), but passenger doesn't know it everytime, since some just automatically press F spawning in heli. give them brief moment to check if the rope is dropped or not while pressing F.

heli health alarm:
I already made this suggestion before but I guess repost it here.
flaming and shakes does tell the health of hull, but I appriciate alarming sound for low health, like for APC.

outside speaker:
proximity voice chat in this game is pure gem, but it is harder to communicate for pilot with ground since it is harder to get closer with big vehicle. let's add speaker mode.
I can yell "get in!" for friendly or just play The Ride Of Valkyries to intimidate enemy while turning around point.

The sudden acceleration towards the ground when your trying to hover is very annoying. Many pilots I've talked to feel the same.
As for the rope I also fly with it up because it looks goofy having people swing on it like monkeys. It breaks my immersion. It's also actually a good thing to fly with the rope up because when you let it down, passangers know that's the sign to go down. If you fly with the rope down the never get off which is dangerous for the pilot and by extension everyone else.
Health alarm would be great. Ushally I'm counting the rockets that hit me rather than trying to guess the health by how much is shaking or smoking. It is very unreliable. If you count the rockets that hit you you can guess your health more accurately but this is not something other pilots would do.
