Hi Craig and all.
I can confirm that it doesn't work as a passive skill. But you do only
have to perform the skill once and then it will let you load and
unload units as many times as you want.
Thanks Craig for the confirmation about the capital C, I didn't even
know that would make a difference so I'll change it now and give it a
test.
The issue I mentioned must have something to do with the memory of the
transport unitor something, its not remembering that its unloaded or
something. I don't understand how these things work so can't be sure.
Probably not helped by me not having a maximum capacity working
properly as it was happy to keep filling and filling.
Thanks again for this and your other scripts, they are very useful and
I look forward to this one working properly as I have lots of ideas
for it.
Thanks
Richard
