Since the release of the pacific campaign, I have noticed more and more the importance of digging out your own trenches. However, it can be pretty slow when it is only yourself, and unlike engineer structures, trench holes don’t provide passive XP and just puts you behind for doing something good for the team.
My recommendation would be to allow a Dig Order for AI to speed up this process, so that for every instance of the order would queue the next soldier who has a shovel equipped to go to the location and dig around 8 times or until they run into an obstacle they can’t dig through.
Just keeping it short and sweet, but this would also help in various other campaigns as well.
