FS2004 Water Dump/Drop Effect

Firefighting aircraft gain a convincing water dump effect, with a visible drop pattern positioned from multiple emitters for a fuller release from the airframe. Designed for FS2004, it ties into the smoke system so the standard “i” control triggers the dump and supports reloading by skimming water for repeat drops.
