Is it possible to have the scout auto explore?

There seems to be no option to have auto exploration like in AoE 2 DE. And there also doesn't seem to be a rally option for units to have them go to specific points in a certain order. Did they not implement this in the game??

Scout can't auto explore.

You can hold down shift and click various points for the scout to go to those points in order just like in AOE2 DE. However, it gives no visual indication of the waypoints.

Another reason why AoE II DE is better.

Yeah the waypoint thing is bad/inexplicable but the lack of autoexplore isnt' necessarily a negative it's just a gameplay choice.
