SAR-HOIST mission / Incorrect Door and Missing Hoist During Hoist Rescue Operation on the Microsoft UH1 Helicopter

ISSUE DESCRIPTION
Description of the issue:

After the helicopter arrives at the rescue location and initiates the hoist procedure to pick up the injured person, the pilot-side front door opens instead of the rear cabin door where the hoist operator is located.
Because the correct rear door does not open, the hoist operator cannot deploy the hoist out of the helicopter side. As a result, the rescue animation is missing or incorrect, and the simulator shows the injured person being pulled through the helicopter fuselage, rather than through an opened door with the hoist extended.

If applicable, which aircraft is experiencing this issue:
Microsoft Bell UH1

It’s a bug for me too. I just don’t understand why the developer doesn’t test their product before releasing it to make sure it works properly?
