Resolved [1.5.0] Horse Archers have difficulty navigating around enemies.

[Apocal]

Summary: When ordering horse archers to charge (F1-F3) or advance (F1-F4), they are noticeably worse at maintaining separation than in prior versions. More units will ride through the enemy rather than around them. It appears to be related to the fact that they are switching to their swords at the wrong time, when they have arrows remaining and are still outside of melee range.
How to Reproduce: Start a battle with horse archers and order them to charge or advance towards enemy.

LOL Yup. I'm not sure if this qualifies as a bug or just bad programming. If it is worse than previous versions you think it could be a bug?

The developers checked the video you've uploaded again. They informed me that some troops can make individual choices and charge and that this works as intended. Thanks for reporting.
