Description


In this replay around the top right of the map. https://zero-k.info/Battles/Detail/1649296
The unit doesn't path to walk into the buildings, it just doesn't have the space to turn around so it rams the buildings while turning. The expected behaviour is that the unit rams the buildings and slides along them as it turns to go in the direction required to move around them. The bug is that the unit becomes stuck.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the stuck unit in the linked replay near the top-right of the map, then trace the unit movement and collision/pathing behavior involved in turning between buildings. Done means the unit can turn around the buildings by sliding along them instead of remaining stuck.
