Hello!


I was just wondering that 'cause some formations, like the Wedge, positionates soldiers too separated from eachother... witch sometimes, makes it harder to control or to make them follow you :S

Thanks!

AI pathfinding would cause it ,
as well as moving to fast for your squad and leaving them behind.

To better control your squad use different formation based on the terrain, for example if your in a
more dense urban type terrain or even forest, then possibly a staggard column or even colum type
formation would work.

If your in the open like a desert of field then a wedg, line, inverted v, delta are idea, but of course
you have to consider whe you meet the enemy what type of formation would be ideal for useing firepower
and cover, usually a line, or a wedge.

Hope that helps.

Thanks for that really helpful bit of information, however, you might notice this is not the OA section. It isn't even the ArmA.2 section. You might as well tell him what he can and can't do in Superawesomeduperskateboardsimulator16.
