I think the defenders should be able to prevent the dropship from leaving by standing in the square, because how can a dropship land and pickup a mech if theres enemies in the landing zone?

that would force a fight and the attackers would still have an advantage since the dropship has weapons

Said it before, will say it again:

Data should be uploaded to the dropship by standing in the square. The same as conquest or incursion with grabbing or installing batteries. Each mech in the box can upload 1 intel in 3 seconds. Getting fired upon disrupts the transmission and pauses the upload for 1 second.

This solves smoke diving. This also gives incentive for the gather side to get to the ship ASAP and get some of the data out, even if they die.
