You need to calm down a little.
Certainly for previous landings there have been a lot of simulations of what the attitude on chute was, and we used them to calculate exposure times, photometric angles, etc, but at best they were measures of what could have happened. Nobody expected them to look much like reality, and they didn't. For example, the MSL descent was much less oscillatory than some of the simulations.

I have 4 questions about parachute-to-landing phase:
1) which is the maximum tilt any lander can tolerate for a safe landing?
2) which is the maximum transverse wind speed any lander can tolerate for a safe landing?
3) How can I determine the better direction for BAM if I don't know wind direction and speed?
4) How can we answer above questions without any method available to know lander tilt and wind speed and direction during landing? (or maybe there are methods, but I dind't find them in stuff I 've read).
