Kickstarter backer here! My main two gripes so far are the camera (heard in new update it is much better but have not tried yet) and when moving large groups of units you eventually get a massive long "string" of them, with the slowest yet strongest in the far back and the quickest yet weakest in the front. Are there any plans for ways to fix this? I was thinking maybe forced formation, like have all the units arrange themselves in a square or rectangle or triangle or whatever and have them keep that formation as they move, with their speed being limited to the slowest unit. If formations do happen, then being able to control what direction they will be facing would be cool too. Something like Total War would be bliss.
Yes, this is under development. Unfortunately we have also found other problems that have interrupted the work a couple times, like ensure units don't get stuck on craters and whatnot. We're all looking forward to this!
I see you're new to the forums, and welcome! You should do a search before posting in accordance with the forum rules. This has been asked about before. Formations will be added into the game. As metabolical said, they are being worked on.
