Sorry if this doesn't belong to here, but I cannot find a bugs topic in the recent list. This is a small bug, but a bug anyways. I know it doesn't come in time to be solved (unless it has been reported earlier), but just for your information.
If you give the following two orders:
1) Move to a spot (while holding down the Shift key to chain a second order), and
2) Double click attack over a unit, in order to run until the charging distance and then attack,
Order #2 is always interpreted as a "walk towards the charging distance and then attack". Note that this doesn't happen if you chain two normal running commands (with no attack).
You can somewhat solve it by chaining together 3 commands: a 1st run command, a 2nd run command to get near the enemy unit and a 3rd command to attack, but it's supposed to work in the easier previous way, and sometimes you wonder why your flanking unit never arrived in time....
