One of the biggest problems I have with ja2 is that whenever I tell my squad to move with the select all by click and drag, and then tell them to move by clicking on the place I want them to go, they always inevitably form a line with each merc stopping and waiting for the merc in front to go. I want them to move together in formations, the simplest being a blob, because at least when they encounter a red, at least they are able to support each other without waiting forever for the mercs at the end of the line to catch up. Are there features to move mercs in formations like the blob, the sweep, the outward facing star, or the backwards facing merc in a line? Is there a way to define the path for the merc without simply clicking every waypoint as they get there?

I think that the game should allow you to specify the direction the merc faces as it travels. It should also allow you to define no movement zones so the merc doesn't move into the zone while shuffling around the center movement destination point, as they always do. I would like the feature of being able to specifying that the weapons are kept at the ready during movement. I would like for the mercs to travel at the speed of the slowest in the group so that they all move together seemlessly.

Help me understand how to use the features to get these things done. Add my suggestions to the suggestion box if they are not already available. Thanks.

Don't think there's any way to move tactically in real time.
