Copy&Paste Ai Arsenal Load-Out.
New, WishlistPublic

Description

Currently in Zeus you can apply a load-out to an Ai unit, which is great, but it can get redundant quite quickly if arsenal load-outs have to be applied to a whole squad. You have to select the arsenal button, click the unit, wait for arsenal to load, apply the load-out, exit arsenal, and then repeat it for the other units. When you attempt to copy&paste the unit who has received the arsenal load-out, they will spawn with a normal load-out once copy&pasted.

I suggest that when a unit is copy&pasted, it will spawn with gear given by the latest load-out applied to it.Ex: The Zeus wants to quickly send a friendly reinforcement squad, with a custom arsenal containing certain uniforms to maintain quality game play, to his stranded buddies. He will be able to easily accomplish this by taking a single unit, applying an arsenal load-out and copy&paste the unit multiple times.

Additional Information

My friends and I like to play Arma3 Zeus a ton, but it when we do we usually use modded equipment to add variety. There are only a few of us, so when we do big battles we like to fight along with Ai. Except when we do so, we have to set all the Ai to similar uniform/weaponry style or else when fighting in battles it really degrades the game play to look at your Ai teammates. I think this small tweak could greatly improve Zeus and save time that can be spent playing the mission.*Note I have tried exporting the init but when I try to use it in Zeus, it does not work.

Indeed this is quite an intelligent argument you've got there.

I agree, I have this same issue, it's tedious and annoying to do it one by one.

No reason not to add this feature. Would only make things easier. I'm no coder but it sounds like it shouldn't be too hard to add.

Another benefit, that just occurred to me, from adding this feature is when you are wearing a custom clothing load out and friendly Ai are as well, it will make it easier for you to identify them from a foe. I really hope this suggestion can be added, it will allow more time to actually be spent playing the game.

This would be super convenient to have added.
