    When using a T2 bot with a cloud of T1 bots assisting him, often the T2 bot can get stuck and delayed because he has to wade through the swarm of T1 bots.

    I think an easy fix for this might be: when a unit has to move to another spot, all units assisting that unit should move to the same spot, instead of following the unit. This would prevent the cloud from obsessively clumping around the singular T2 bot.

    (Also it'd be sweet if that sort of thing could be implemented as a mod, but I don't think there's hooks for changing unit commands/behavior)

    good idea. the assisting units also should swarm out a little bit, cos often, if you build t2, the t2 engineer needs to start the building but the t1 is blocking it.
