Assign gear is the name of the feature that handles gear assignment. We do not support using arsenal loadouts for players. This is because it is tedious to hand craft for each player and has often in the past been bugged.

The assigngear system makes use of faction configs. These configs can either be in a mission or included in the modpack. Every faction config contains a bunch of different roles (e.g. Squad Leader/Rifleman). You can then give these roles to particular units.

Firstly in Eden on any soldier you use the assign gear component by right clicking on them and clicking on attributes. You will find the following section. This menu will automatically will up roles defined in the modpack or in the mission file.

To add more or tweak the factions available in a mission you need to open the file description.ext in the mission folder. There will be a section called 'class CfgLoadouts'

Here you can create extra factions. You can also override the default ones. By default BLU_F, OPF_F, IND_F are used for the units in the template so if you change this config all the default units in the template will be changed as well.
