I noticed that most of the crates land in the same areas on the map.
Can this be changed?

I have the same problem on my server.  Usually dropping in one of two locations.  A few of my regulars have figured it out and have built bases nearby..

The same here now. People start to build where the crates are dropped.
What can we do?

Do you use the TimedEvents plugin?

You want it to be more random, you should increase them

  "Minimum time until drop (seconds)": 40.0,
  "Maximum time until drop (seconds)": 60.0,

If you are using the TimedEvents plugin, I have already submitted a patch, waiting for Orange to approve it.
Because TimedEvents always makes the Chinook spawn in the same location.

No. I don't use it.
I don't need the time the chinook comes to be more random, I need to the chinook to not drop it on the same spots everytime.

Try to enable it.... 

 "Prevent the game from handling chinook drops": true,

Will do and tell you tomorrow what happened.

But I am pretty sure I did that one time and it only led to the chinook not coming anymore.

Because you set them too long...    So the box don't drop

"Minimum time until drop (seconds)": 40.0,
"Maximum time until drop (seconds)": 60.0,​

I set the times you just posted. Looks good I guess.
Will watch if a bit today and see if the crate drops differ more.

I have:
"Prevent the game from handling chinook drops": true
"Minimum time until drop (seconds)": 40.0,
"Maximum time until drop (seconds)": 60.0

But still the chinook drops the crate around the same 2 spots on the map.

How does your Chinook spawn?
If it's game controlled, it doesn't drop in the same place.

It's like 3 areas where it always drops the crates. Not exactly the same coordinates but like the same place at least.

"Prevent the game from handling chinook drops": true,​

I have that.
