When will the attack move unit problem be fixed?
Having to set units to stand ground to get them to do what you tell them, then switch on/off is a direct buff to high apm players. For the previous 18 years this was unnecessary. The behavior was better for all players -- units remained on whatever attack stance until they had completed the action -- ie: killing a villager, then reverted to their stance. For the past two years in DE, units simply attack move when you right click attack -- meaning if you order a unit to kill a weak vil, unless they are set to stand ground they will just ignore your command. Absolute bonkers that this mechanism/bug exists and must be baby sat.
When will chunky buildings be fixed?
For 18 years, you did not need to hold alt to try to kill villagers/units behind a building. Now, you must do so if you are trying to micro down villagers, or risk misfiring/misclicking the building foundation. Those who are able to utilize APM more effectively are distinctly advantaged by this bug in DE that has remained unfixed for two years.
These aren't "strategic implements," to the game, they are clear bugs that have either been addressed as "fixed," or in the building foundation, highlighted as "utilizing an extra button," to try to do what normally could be done without holding down an extra button (alt).
For some, might not be an issue -- but for folks like me who both forget that the game no longer works as it has for 18+ years or don't even have hotkeys for stances memorized, it makes a huge difference in game situations.
