Please, air transports bunch up and stack, is it possible to make it so they don't?

Do they stack (as in all at the same spot) even when they have collisions on?

How do you want them to behave when you order multiple transports to load a single unit?

If you want just one transport to go then that can be done with lua by dropping the order for all but one selected unit.

AFAIK transports already drop the pickup order if another transport is doing the jo, I can hold shift, queue a bunch of loads and each of them goes off to grab a different unit.

I am talking about the flying transports stacking together looking like one unit. Not issues with load/unload.

yep, all aircraft should attempt to maintain a minimum distance away from other aircraft
for one thing it looks stupid when they bunch up
also it makes it very easy to shoot them all down

Is the collision code not working as intended, or was this behavior on purpose?
