Bot squad formation..how about a key bind for different formations

Suggestions

I don’t know if this has been suggested as I havn’t read all posts in the forum. So pardon me if this has been mentioned before or has been accomplished.

I think the ability to assign a key bind to the squad formation is better than the “Circle” and pick method.
A key bind would allow you to change formations “on the fly” instead of having to hit a key, go around the circle and pick a formation. I don’t mind this method for the engineers, but I don’t like it for changing squad formation.

A quick press of a bind key would you allow you to spread out or close up, or have your squad follow other orders as you are advancing or retreating on the run. It would add a lot more playability to commanding your squad.

Thanks, and I hope that this suggestion has not already been made. If it has, please excuse me.

Personally I don’t see any reason to change formation on the fly. There are far more important things to do during gunfight than changing formation, and outside of gunfight you can just use circle.

Each of the parts of the circle have a number you can press.
I usually put my guys in close formation so it’s [circle keybind] then 4 then 1.

as if formation helps the bots in anything they still dumb even being an individual soldiers they all just look at the same enemy and everyone tries to kill it and don’t pay attention to anything else
