Loading space transports?

Post by Ricent1 »

I have created transports to settle my moon. How do I load ground units into them?

I'm pretty sure the planet needs to be marked as habitable in order to land on it. This would be the same for colonization and transport ships.

To load your land units, first select them. Then, use <Ctrl>+<Right Click> on the location with the transport. You'll see "load into" in the list. Select the transport.

Or, select them then select load from the orders list. When you <Right Click> on the location with the transport it will give you the name of the transport to select.

How do you use ctr + right click on a ship in space when you have land units selected ? i dont understand this at all.... Why not simple put in a space building buildable on the planet ,have space transports land there, and then they can load there ?

Some spacecraft (All transport I think?) are dropships - they can be ordered to land on the planet.

What do you mean "...a space building buildable on the planet.."?

Like a "kenedy space center" building, where space ships could land ,and be loaded with whatever.But if the shps can already land, its un-needed

K, i tried the drop order,nothing happened,ill try it again.
