Fire at will results in your units merrily shooting at friendlies--this did not happen in MTW. 2. Telling a unit to stop firing does not make it stop for at least one and often multiple volleys--again unlike MTW. (Same occurs when you change targets in manual fire mode.)

Shall we bring out the gallows for those who are not paying attention?
I'm well away of FF in RTW thank you. My comment was aiming at the people who have literally wondered aloud why CA didn't retain the "code" for preventing FF in MTW. I may have a hugely limited knowledge of programming, but even I know that it's not that simple for countless reasons. Commenting on friendly fire is fine, since it's a clear issue. I just hate it when people refer to MTW constantly and forget that the entire system is very different and far more complex. When you make a game from scratch, you do exactly that.
