Squad Select

Squad control for Ascent of Ashes, the way an RTS lets you. Grab your whole group with a drag-box or Ctrl+A, draft them with G, and move or attack as one — and with the new AI stance, drafted pawns hold the line and fire on their own.

Controls: • Ctrl+A selects every player pawn; click-drag box-selects; Shift+click adds to the selection. • G drafts / undrafts the whole selected squad. • Right-click the ground = formation move; right-click a hostile = the squad attacks it. • Alt+right-click any creature = force the squad to attack it (e.g. hunting). • Neutral animals and items keep their normal right-click menu. • V cycles the squad AI stance (shown top-left): – Defensive: hold position and auto-fire at anything in range. – Aggressive: advance on and focus-fire the nearest threat (gunners shoot, never charge into melee). – Neutral: fully manual. Out-of-ammo gunners grab ground ammo; badly wounded pawns fall back. Requires the AshForge Mod Loader — enable it from the AshForge Hub.
