Droid speed issue #1177
Description

This ticket is related to AI script.
Droids which belongs to a group always move with the highest speed of the slower droid in the group, not with their own higher speed even if to order to move is given via orderDroid().
Would it be possible to modify this at least for the below two listed functions such that the droid moves at its higher speed even if belonging to a group:
orderDroid(DROID, order)
orderDroidLoc(DROID, order, x, y)
While when using the orderGroup functions the droid should move with the highest speed of the slower tank, which is already the case:
orderGroup(GROUP, order)
orderGroupLoc(GROUP, order, x, y)
Thanks!

I can give you a function to turn on/off speed limiting globally. What you are asking for requires much more work because it is contrary to how it is designed to work.

In particular, see my post:
We can do that. As I've already mentioned, we can't change orderDroid/orderGroup because 1. orderDroid affects players, and 2. formation speed limiting can't be done in orderDroid/orderGroup.

Replying to Warzone2100/old-trac-import#1177 (comment:1):
Would this affect the speed of all droids, also the ones belonging to the human player and other AIs? If so I think this could be a good 'temporary' solution. What I mean is that if this requires a lot of work for you leave it, if not please proceed and I will implement it in DyDo. I will try to implement it such that DyDo turn it off only when it is really necessary (a battle is ongoing).

I looked into this, and the formation speed limiting is ... insane. It limits all droids driving to the same coordinates. And this is set globally for all droids, all players, locally on each PC, and is not even synchronized over the network to other players in MP.

Per commented
(In [9330]) Remove support for formation speed limiting. It is not implemented well, has bugs, and will
lead to severe out of sync issues if used by some but not all players in multiplayer. This
closes #1177 and closes #1167
