Troops keep redeploying during battles

**ViolentGoldFish** · January 03, 2011, 12:12 AM

Apologies if this has already been spoken about\resolved.

It's not game destroying just a little annoying at times, but when i move some units around (infantry) they line up, fire once, then they start to clump together and redeploy very slowly. If im not paying attention then it can be battle changing, but it's a very minor complaint.

Thanks for any advice

I have never noticed such a thing, any particular unit or terrain?

it has done it on different occasions, different terrain and different units, but it seems to be only core infantry units, not ones like snipers\flamethrowers etc.

its not a huge problem, so if its just a path finding problem from vanilla then im sure we can live with it

That happens to me, also sometimes my units will just walk in some random direction, usually forward.

I often encounter this; Ill have a battalion attack (click, not fire at will) and after awhile, the unit turns sideways for no apparent reason.

Yeah, happens to me sometimes too - Unfortunately this is just a bug carried over from vanilla, something to do with poor pathfinding I imagine.

I have noticed that it seems to affect mainly units set to loose formation (light infantry behaviour?). Either way, this is a problem with N:TW vanilla pathfinding not coping with big units, I believe.
