The idea itself is pretty easy. You want to move manpower via ships? Easy solution, you just need two new options for ships:
1. A ship must be able to load MP from a system
The ship/fleet loads as much MP as possible by deducting it from the system MP. This does not work if the system MP is 0.
2. A ship must be able to drop its MP onto a system it's orbiting
The ship/fleet unloads as much MP as possible onto the system by deducting the MP from the ship itself. This does not work if the system's MP has reached its maximum value.
By that method, one could move MP from one system to another.
Other benefits:
-Filling an invasion fleet with MP, collecting MP from several systems
-Emptying a pure defense fleet to keep the MP in the system
Additional ideas:
3. One could decide where the MP goes first, i.e. first ships or first systems.
