About amphibious landing attack after the Tiny update

I'd like to know about if there is update regarding the possible new way to simulate the amphibious landing attack, as it is all-important to the scenario of the invasion/defence of Taiwan. I have tried with transfer the amphibious IFV to the coast by the time trigger instead of actually landing, and these IFV are assigned to land strike missions.

I could also landing some units from LHZ or LPD, but it requires to assign these units manually to attack missions after they landed. However, after I added the actual units of PLA such ZTD-05, the landed units were converted into genetic units with relevant fire power. And to send these units to land, several LCAC is required from LPD. Is there a way to set the amphibious vehicles to swim away by itself from the LPD to the landing zone and firing towards the costal targets?

Yeah, this was displayed in a live stream yesterday. I have great confidence it was reported.

is there any replay of the stream? As I know, it is not yet possible to set LPD as the unit to the landing mission, since LPD should keep about 40KM away from the coast, but the amphibious IFV is the unit in the cargo. It can be possible to swim out the LPD if it is set as unit in the category of the boat.

As of the current build, you can't use a delivery mission to launch an amphibious IFV without cargo. You can launch manually, or if they do have the capacity to carry infantry, you can just create a cargo mission, assign it to be loaded with infantry, and it will work. You can also load the IFV on another boat as cargo, and it will be delivered.

When the fix comes through, hopefully, you'll be able to launch them independently with a mission.
