[BUG] Troops deploy facing away from the enemy.

[Lucan946]

I tried to tell my men to deploy, but the deployed in a straight line facing ahead, not at the enemy. They were standing this way:

E = Enemy

- = my men

^= The way they were facing
                 

                  ^

E  ----------------------------------

I'm not sure if that's a bug. I've had this happen many times, and sometimes the enemy has even spawned directly behind me, which I suppose represents ambushes etc.

I really think it should stay.

Uhm, what the ****? No, it really shouldn't. It most definitely is a bug. I placed my troops in a manner in which they should have turned to face the enemy (I deployed them adjacent to them; the command marker was right across from them) but they stayed facing ahead.

Ah, I misread, thinking this was about the initial deployment of forces. Deployment during battle should have forces facing the enemy, so yes, it's a bug.

Okay, I'm here with screenshots.



That's what I mean. Deploying them a little bit farther ahead actually helped quite a bit, but it's still a bug that needs to be fixed.
