RFE: enable group speed limits

[bulrush]

Warzone 3.1RC. I know the group speed limits do not work. I'd like them to work. I want all units to go at the speed of the slowest unit in the group. The group needs to stay together for a reason.

Is this on the drawing board for the next release?

This could be a bad thing or a good thing. For example, sometimes my group has flamer borgs and tanks, and I want the borgs to rush ahead and set fire to stuff with the tanks lagging behind shooting at stuff from a safer distance.

maybe an option to turn on or off

Hrm, still not convinced this is a good idea. It would be better to choose which droids you group more carefully so they work well with the current way it works. For example, having flamer borgs with some tanks, so that the flamers rush in and set fire to stuff and as they get damaged and retreat the enemy will follow right in to the line of slower-moving tanks, the tanks will finish off the damaged enemy units and also protect your retreating flamers.

As tanks get more experience, their speed increases. Through nothing I can control, some tanks just make more kills than the others in a group, so they gain experience, go faster, and split off from the pack.
