This isn't true. Even over the past year there have been a number of unit ai changes.

Something might not be implemented because it's not worth the hassle to code up or because it hasn't been thought of. Dev mana is not an infinite resource.

Or someone who is annoyed by a tedious aspect of the game and wants to fix it.

This particular widget is not very useful in my view given laying minefields is trivial already with the area fire command. (Though ideally that command would be redone so that you designate minefield areas and those are mined by all badgers in range so that new ones that come in mine the area)

Regarding AI in general, I think a game where the tedious uninteresting stuff is automated is better than one where it isn't automated. Automating the stuff requiring high level thinking and analysing (which most likely will require some complicated neural networks or somesuch) would be bad, but automating basic things like your glaive backing away from an oncoming Reaver is good.

This is pretty much the only RTS I know of that's slowly moving in this direction, the others all seem pretty happy to having frantic clicking and babysitting idiotic units be an important game skill.

It

your

anyone
else's!
The

pretty

all
be

in

those
positions
if
local

weren't
a
thing!

@iwantusername : I'm not sure you have the same understanding of the word "widget" as I do (or @PRO_rANDY for that matter). I'm too lazy to link @GoogleFrog's explanation right now, so I'll instead ask: is the idle con assist functionality a "widget"?
