Dear Devs -
Love the game. Looking forward to its full potential.
A quick note about unit behavior. In SC2 (and virtually every RTS game), you can right click your units onto another unit as a follow/guard command. I often do this in SC2 with zerglings, to guard a queen while I attend to Macro elsewhere while they're out on the field spreading creep... Or using Hydras to follow and guard a broodlord attacking a base.
Currently, the follow command doesn't guard. It just follows. This causes the units to act stupidly when encountering the enemy. They just stand there and get attacked mindlessly following the unit without bothering to either defend it, or themselves. This has to be a bug/oversight. It's hard to see why this would be intentional.
I would love to see this fixed. I would love to be able to trust my units to properly engage when I'm sending them across the map, such as gaunts protecting a Hellborn, rather than just standing there taking damage for now good reason while I'm trying to macro and manage the many things happening at once.
Thanks for reading this!
