Guarding unit: "Order your unit(s) to guard another unit or building. Guard units attack enemy units that get close, then return to their post.(Hotkey:X)"
Following unit: "Order your unit(s) to follow another unit at long range to avoid detection. Use this to follow a villager or enemy unit back to its base or follow a Trade Cog or Trade Cart to find new Markets.(Hotkey:C)"
Defensive Stance: "Defensive units pursue enemies a short distance, then return to their post if the enemy leaves the area or is killed.(Hotkey:D)"
What distance, what area?
Does any of this actually work?
Is it useful?
Once i thought guarding could be used to attach my units to, lets say, an allies onager, so it will follow his movements, an i can do my own things. But i never found a good use for these. It looks like units getting out of control as soon as enemy is in range.
Does anybody have a purpose for these commands?
