Amending my previous: it mostly *doesn't* work -- the into cutscene used in mission 7 (picking up Matt) appears to be an outlier in not automatically putting the player into the ship suit. All my other attempts to block forcing the player into specific attire has been unsuccessful, cutscenes or otherwise (such as Asha rescue or Kinzie rescue). Or perhaps the game won't lose-load mission specific LUA files, so I have to repack sr3_city_0.vpp_pc to get it to actually accept my changes. That's certainly a possibility. I just assumed that it was lose loading the files when tweaking the mission 6 lua file corrected the player concluding the mission back on the ship in the ship suit.
I'll have to test repacking later, because that's going to be a process.
