Guard function that actual guards

I think that it would be really good if units set to guard actual guarded the unit needing to be guarded instead of just following it :) .I think that guarding units should patrol around whatever they are guarding unleash they are helping it do something.

We could have a toggle with two options at the bottom of the Guard button, passive and active. Active would force a circular patrol route just outside X Elmos while passive would simply be the current.

Yes, the guard function thus far is only useful for build assist.

Guard queud on diffrent Units is also useless.. would be cool if the Units would patroll between those Units they are ordered to guard.. that way they would keep moving instead of just built a heap around the ToGuardObject..
