you can make an empty parachute..

look under Empty/Air for one..  

then name it and set it to "flying"

name the guy that you want to be dropped

Put a west man somewhere on the map and name him "nimitz" (w/o quotes obviously).

oh yeah that was how it was, but it would help me if you could post the command line for it.

examples gives me a better idea of how things work.

I still wonder about that hawk shipaddon
does no one have any idea ?

well.. if your guy was named  'g'  and your parachute was named 'p'

then your init line would look like:

g moveindriver p
