Pawns Unable to Equip Shields as Part of Loadout
Assigning a shield in a loadout and assigning it to a pawn is causing them to pick up the shield in their inventory but not equip it. I want to have a shield in the offhand with the pawn using an auto-pistol that can be swapped out for a knife in the main-hand. Without force equipping the shield to them, it just end's up in their backpack, which is not what I want. Is there a step that I am missing for having pawns equip shields as part of the loadout?

I'm not having any issue with pawns equipping shields as prescribed by their apparel policy. While they carry them in their inventory while not drafted or in combat, they immediately equip the shield when fighting or drafted. If the issue persists, perhaps ensure they equip their apparel before their weaponry?

Old post but whatever. Shields need to be assigned through apparel policy, not loadout.
