Tanks can be dropped from miles high without any damage
New, WishlistPublic

Description

If you go into the editor and set the elevation of a tank to 100 or even 1,000, the tank will appear in the air and drop quickly. No damage at all will appear on the tank, and after you land you can continue to drive normally. The tank just bounces a little, like it's made of rubber. Maybe it's a feature for airdrops or something, but I think a tank should sustain at least a little damage when it's dropped from 1,000 meters at terminal velocity.

Additional Information

This also works with ridiculously high elevations, I even tried it from 10,000 meters. Same result every time.
