Title: Quick List for soldier setup
Post by: ferralll on May 02, 2012, 01:49:18 am

Simple idea that would allow for quick and easy soldier equipping. 

When equipping, have the ability to "save current setup".  This just saves the type and location of teh weapons/equipment on the soldier, and allows for you to name it. 

So you can have "flamer", and when you apply it, it automaticly puts the flame thrower, grenades, side arm or and what ever else you have saved ot that setup. 

It would just make load outs quicker and less tedious.  (especialy because the right clicking automaticly likes to put med kits and grenades in their hands)

If any of you played x-com 3 -- there were "squads" which you could assign soldiers to, so you could lift them as a whole squad and dump them into new vehicles without losing all their preset equipment.

At the moment it's a pain when upgrading from a fire...fox? firebird? whatever the stock troop carrier is, to the herakles - all my soldiers wind up weaponless and naked (ok armourless) again and I have to spend ten minutes re-equipping them :(
