Is there any way to get allied units to defend against the moob spawns? The Command Centre attack order only seems to work on the few maps that have enemy cores. Would be great if you could set a rally spot or patrol points.

use the patroll option on the command center

I have tried that and they just seem to walk around by the Core rather than hanging near where the enemy come from. Does it need 2 Command Centres to work?

I'm also curious. A command center, or even two of them, don't seem to have any effect on anything. I've tried selecting the different options of patrol, attack, and retreat.

I've just seen that Anuken has reworked the Command Center and the Attack command is now supposed to set mechs to move towards spawn point. Patrol is now "Rally" so will have to see how that works too :)

You can't get allied units (drones) to go around a specific point. As some advice, I would avoid using drones for anything outside of core vs. core.

YES! I wish I could place a patrol point that my units would hang around so they can help defend spots of my choosing. The ability to turn on and off of these patrol points would be excellent so I can chance where they patrol at will. Make it a 1x1 block called "patrol point" that turns on and off by clicking on it.

Even if you make it that only one can be active at a time would be great! (Multiple would split your forces evening between "patrol points")
