My recollection is that an engineering brigade should be "5 battalions" in size. Are you sure you don't already have a battalion on board?

Crap, thats it, I forgot to unload 57:th Brigade at the ruin... :oops:

Five should actually be enough.

Well I am trying to load the 58 Engineer Brigade.

I get the following message.

Pickup failure     Cannot pick up ground unit as the fleet has insufficient space...

But I presume that a Brigade has more than 5 battalions??? :(

I was planning to send some engineer battalions to a planet with a ruin on... Designed the following ship, but it cant´t load any troop.... Why?

You'll need to give more information about what "can't load" means.  What is the failure mode?  My first guess would be that you don't have any ground units that are outside PDC.
