Posible to let a factory assist a patrol order

[H-master]

Is it possible to let a factory assist a patrol order?

For example, a group of ASF's is flying in a patrol order. It it possible to let all new build ASF's automatically join the patrol?

Thanks in advance

i think you just make move order from factory to patrol start point, then with holding shift button press "patrol" and click around to set patroll paths, i think many players use that for t1 air and scouts

This feature has been an aspect of the game for some time. The patrol order needs to be incorporated into the factory waypoint. Newly constructed units will automatically join the patrol.

Other orders which can be used in the factory waypoint include the move, and attack-move commands. A move order (for a land factory) can even be set to a ferry system beacon. Meaning that newly constructed units will automatically load into transports. It is a way of keeping your factories viable over longer distances.

Alternatively, transports can be told to assist the factory. Transports, when told to do this, will assist a move command, but not an attack-move command. This can be useful when you don't want the transports to drop at the final destination. By giving the factory waypoint a move command followed by an attack move command. The transports will deliver units to the designated "drop zone". The land units will then proceed on the ground. Stopping to attack enemies as they do so.

Thanks for your reply, but how exactly do you incorporate the factory waypoint with the patrol order?

I don't think it's possible what I mean.

I understand it's possible to let a factory make a patrol, but you can't add exitsing units to that patrol.

Or when there already is a patrol, let the factory add units to that patrol.

instead of giving the move/patroll order to units give it to factory

then when you want to change it (for allready build and new unit) you drag the existing order somewhere else)

if you only want your new units to follow your new order you simply give new order to factory

what you want is: select existing units AND the factory, then set up a new patrol
