Improved Right-Click drag

Currently when you right click drag a formation it the units don't move to a sensible position in the formation

Units don't seem to move to the position in the line that is closest to them, and we get lots of paths that cross each other and bump each other around and generally act slowly.



The second problem with right click drag formation is that units will go to the position, but they don't seem to pay attention to the direction the line is facing and just stay in whatever orientation they arrived in.

Im not the most confident coder but unless im missing some great problem this shouldnt be too hard to fix.

Could someone point me in the right direction to have a look :I

it would be nice that units would be aware of their formation and keep it while moving, etc

This actually could help pathfinding a bit if units dont have as many collisions to worry about on their way to their destination :^).
