Research direction

Start by reproducing the described sequence with selected ground units: click the ferry icon, give orders, then distribute orders, and compare the result with the linked video. Trace the ferry and distributed-order handling from the relevant game entry points; done means the units board the transport and complete the ferry before carrying out their distributed orders.
