Using Troops to defend against boarding actions |

I'm trying to get Troops in a ship's cargo to add to the defence against enemy boarding actions but I can't get it to work.
I've added the Abilities Added To Parent When In Cargo to the unit in VehicleUnitTypes.txt and tried adding a Boarding Defence ability (copied from the Security Station component) to both a component on the Troop, and to the Troop itself in VehicleSizes.txt, but neither works. Is what I'm trying to do possible?
It would be allright if it

It would be allright if it could be limited to only certain abilities.... aka maybe Shields of units in cargo can add to the ships shields as back up generators etc.
Not working yet
The add ability when in cargo thing doesn't work yet, but if it did, what you are trying to do would probably work.
I'm pretty sure weapons platforms have that setting on... can you imagine if it worked and you could use weaponsplatforms in cargo during combat >.>
