Parachute

A Parachute allows the pioneer to fall slower and take no fall damage. It is used by pressing the jump button (default ) while descending in the air. Pressing the jump while ascending upwards in the air will not work. If a stack of multiple parachutes is equipped, only one will be consumed upon landing.

Once a parachute is deployed, it becomes very difficult to control the horizontal movement speed mid-air. Beware of using this with Hyper Tube Cannon.

Known Bugs
Using the final parachute in an equipped stack immediately removes the parachute item from the inventory. As a result, the final parachute cannot actually deploy and a player should regard having one parachute as having zero.
