    The current pre-release of the client ("pioneer" in the version) is only compatible to itself. So you can only play with other testers. Please be aware!

    How do you make engineers automatically assist a building/experimental when they're built?

        Set a patrol route for your engineers and build an experimental near the patroling engineers.
        They will automatically assist when your mass and ecostorage is over 80%

          Gotcha. Looks like they won't help with building/ACU upgrades?

            That's right, they only reclaim repair or assist build.
            They don't help on mex/factory upgrades or ACU/SACU enhancements.

              Trap engineers inside a walled out area and make them assist ground and they will kinda act like an engineering station

                ZLO, how can you dare to say that ?
                Taking engineers as hostage can't be the solution! 😄

                  Oh also assist on ground make units lose collision, and that means you can pack all hundreds of units just in a few "squares" of walls
