Default Re: Weight and Carry Capacity

Thanks for the info!
I'd considered the landing craft issue.
I'll leave the "vehicle carrying" types at a carry capacity of 255. There aren't all that many helos/aircraft with a 55 passenger capacity so I'll shave them to 53 passengers, I doubt the loss of 2 will be noticeable. Then set most of the armored (and other physically large) to a weight of 54. Too heavy to fit in a helo/aircraft but will still fit on landing craft.
I just wanted to make sure I understood how "weight" was used (or not used) by the game code first.
I also went thru and changed all the 100, 101 weights to the "noticeable" 99 since that's (in theory) the standard for "uncarryable".
Thanks again for the info !
