    Default Gunners keep moving out of position

    When I set my musketeers in a straight line, they will sometimes reposition themselves to be perpendicular to the enemy. I don't want them to do that because I micromanage all my units.

    How would I make them stop?

    Is there an entry in the descr_unit file I can change?

    Is there anything I can change?

    I would remove the fire by rank attribute. It stops the unit from reforming after some casualties. It also will make them more deadlier.
    Officer to a soldier who refuses to fight: There three types of soldiers who don't have to fight. They are called KIA, MIA and POW and you are not one of them.

    Tosa will be missed.

    I like the fire by rank. I like how they all fire all at the same time.

    I also have them lined up 3-4 lines deep. Yeah, I know about the gunpowder bug and using 2 lines, but I'm using retrofit mod and so far they seem to be firing alright without bugs....

    They are also my frontline so they must be able stop the front line forces from advancing to my archers. Janissary muskets and janissary archers with stakes ftw. The only issue is that they sometimes reposition themselves outside of the stakes.
