hmm weird i edited the text because i made some mistakes in my explanation but Gator just removes it 😢
In any case, try number 3. AI infantry doesn't register you releasing Direct Control when they are in the Dropship. That's why they won't shoot after being released from the ship

ok. I have a hypothesis
So we get infantry into the Dropship by using Direct Command. We then terminate Direct Command while the infantry are inside the Dropship.
We then fly the Dropship by giving it a simple move order.
Now we offload the infantry by giving the "Deploy Infantry" order.
So the problem could be that by terminating Direct Command while infantry are in the Dropship something doesn't compute on the game's end. So when you deploy the infantry they can take move orders but won't attack cause that thing failed to compute.
Now I will not edit the above message because for some reason editing messages makes gator think I am duplicating messages.
@snow slate we found a new problem lol
