    Hey

    Often when trying to build stuff with a lot of contruction units, and you like get your first advanced scv. You select that and a group of the first tier ones. But then often times those will block the path for the advanced one, so it cannot actually start the construction, often adding 5-10 sec more time per building, because it has to try and push through them and doesnt actually drive around.

    Would be nice if the one that has the construction blue print could just push the others out of the way. Its a bit of unnessesary micro on a game of this scale. It also hurts queuing up buildings.

    Thanks

    it would be nice, but it's no gamebreaker

    it's worked exactly like that since TA

    there's tons of more important tweaks ahead of this issue

    Honestly I don't care about how it looks, I'd be happy with engineers being transparent to each other.
