Using LEA to create loadouts for units in a mission

I need some help from someone in the know please!

Create mission in the Arma Editor, placing playable units.
Use LEA (Mission Editor tab) to import the mission.sqm, give all the units gear, generate loadout.sqf

No problem so far, all units have the gear they should when playing the mission.

But how do you now add additional units in the Editor and get them to show up in LEA?

If I add a new unit, it doesn't show in LEA (Mission Editor tab) unless I 'Import mission.sqm'.
But if you do that, you lose all the previous created loadout's for the original units and have to start again from scratch?

Best person to ask is Major-shephard

He's pretty good at getting back to people.

Thanks to all for the suggestions and to Frosty for the solution.

You need to click Mission>Save in LEA after creating the first set of loadouts, not just Generate loadout.sqf
Then having added an additional unit in the ArmA Editor and saved it, back to LEA Mission > Import > Import mission.sqm
