Nooooo, that would mean there would be no alternative for manual tree reclaim in late-tree-reclaim-game and that would be horrible. I would have to spend 99% of the game time on clicking on trees since patrol and normal attack move cant keep up at all with the efficiency.

Is that what you want, tree wars? NOOOO!!!

I have hsd this same thing happen before.... I think it occurs when two engies think they are supposed to be in the same spot for assisting something. Whichever gets there first stays, and the other goes off wandering, and it is a totally random occurence. If you have many engies assisting, and you build where several will have to move (while still assisting) and two of them want the same spot, one will travel to who knows where while still assisting away.

When you build something where an engy is, and if it build, it move away while not stopping to assist.

I believe that in the case of the bug, it's the same behavior except that it doesn't stop and move away until he is done assisting.

i tried to reproduce this long range bug on a standard fa setup, i couldnt even reproduce it once, i built a factory, then a few engies, i got the commander
to assist one of the engies and sent him on a far patrol i orders all the engies to assist the factory, i then built more stuff from the factory, the commander always returned to the engi it was assisting before it started assisting..

Attack-Move command from a Factory, then build Engies. They will reach the waypoint and start reclaiming with insane ranges.

The reclaim range bug, even if related to the screenshot, is not the same issue at all.

In that case, it's a builder building something while moving, but doesn't stop when going out of range.

As it's an engine bug, to solve that, you will have to check all builders each tick and check the range compared to what they build, that will become insanely slow very fast.

Better to fix bugs that actually effect gameplay -_-

most likely it's just an extreme case of a pathfinding problem, and btw fixing all that bugs would destroy all these nice screenshots

Well if you have any idea how to fix it, be my guest

I don't even know how to reproduce it to begin with.

Because it's a... BUG.

BUGS should be fixed in ANY AND ALL cases where doing so will not break game functionality. Engies are perfectly capable of autoreclaim from patrol or attack move without this happening.

It's not like it's happening often or give any advantage.
