EB unit cohesion

[JMRC]

Guys, what you "asking" is already made using standard values of the EDU. By combining the formation spread with the training attribute, you can make a unit more tight (less spread, more training).

The removal or replacement of the shuffling anims is already done in formations like the phalanx, but they very important also to keep the unit tight, because the soldiers use the shuffling to fill the empty spaces created in the formation when soldiers die.

Anyway, the answer is: yes, we are going to implement unit cohesion, specially in phalanx.

What about to using it to make it harded for undisciplined units to be ordered about after getting into a fight?

yey, experience that influences cohesion is the best solution under any circumstances

I think maybe people are confusing unit density (how closely packed the soldiers are while in formation) to unit cohesion (how well a unit is capable of retaining its formation while on the move and/or while in combat, and possibly it's ability to quickly and orderly to disengage from an enemy and return to formation) here.
