Sometimes - you gotta laugh (alt right-click move)

[CyberRanger]

Okay, don't get me wrong, I love these games. But sometimes, the movement paths selected by the computer are simply funny. I've learned that right click, hex by hex is the only sure fire way to go. But, if I have a lot of units to move a long way on a road, I tend to use alt-right click.

Here's a picture of what the computer did to me recently:

Now, I "alt right-clicked" on the hex with the pointed cross hairs. But the computer decided to follow the red arrow path. Moral of the story ... once again ... right click is the only sure movement method! :cheeky:

Yeah, that can be frustrating...what I would have done is Alt + right-clicked to the crossroads, then did a second click to the desired destination hex. That would have made it clear to the AI which path you wanted to follow.

This is a prime example of why I never drag-and-drop though.
