Hi,
I'd like to see the possibility of user-defined 'defaults' for the loadout of a soldier. The user could then define a default setting for 'assault' or 'heavy', or even just a 'standard equipment' and then add on from there. If the user could name their defaults/settings then they could organize them as they see fit. It would be a default available across all soldiers, not tied to any one soldier. This feature would aid in initial configuration and swapping in and out of soldiers since the configuration is lost every time a change is made.
Further on from these 'defaults' would be an option to purchase the needed equipment for the default you're assigning (if the missing items could be purchased) or state that an item is not in the stores should you try to assign a default that includes equipment you don't have in the stores and it's something you make yourself.. maybe put in a work order?
This idea of 'defaults' could also be extended to aircraft too. It'd be very much easier to set up a number of like-interceptors in different bases.
