Yes, this thing is very important. Which is the point on calling a dropship if it will only carry a single soldier? I'm better off with a drop crate in that case.

Presets should call in at least 3 soldiers in one craft (though the quantity is relative, for example calling a sniper or an engineer should bring only one, calling the Light Infantry or Heavy Infantry should bring 2-3 soldiers).


EDIT:

Just thought this, is it possible to place in a loadout a craft that already has defined cargo? In that way bringing in more soldiers in one preset would require some very simple .ini tweaking.
