auto worker escort

[Cresan]

I want to set a worker to auto and attach a military unit to her to follow her around as protection. Is there a way to do that. I couldn't find anything in the forum, and frankly, I wasn't sure on what to search for. Thanks for any help.

no can do in vanilla.... look in the Creation & Customization forum... maybe it's in a mod

Without unit stacking it would be hard to make sure they are not in the way of another unit.

Thanks for your replies. Will go to the mod area.

Sorry, but why anybody would want a worker to go auto - and, moreover, waste a military unit to follow? It looks so... counterproductive...

Have to agree with Zdarg and Greshik. With 1upt, setting a worker on auto is bound to cause major headaches and bottlenecks, especially with the less than stellar worker AI and pathfinding algorithms . . .

OP, you might just want to have like a ranged unit (archer,crossbowman) occupy a central location in your worker territory, he will be able to better protect your workers (especialy if he is on a hill for the sight bonus).
