Units moving on their own

[Brutal]

Is their any way to prevent units from moving on their own in a ground battle? I'll position a tank behind my infantry units using a normal move order, and sometimes when a fight starts, they'll rush forward and get themselves killed. Any way around this, I know it's been an issue for a long time.

air units in ground and fighters in space constantly move. move vs attack command in slower mode of speed should resolve the issue of commanding equally

What I'm saying is that I'll place a tank lets say behind a group of infantry. When the enemy appears, the until will charge forward, and then have a 50/50 chance of either staying there, or rushing back. And I'm just using the simple right-click move to order them to their spot. Is it like an automatic guard mode or something?

move ignore combat unless blocked. guard hold their place, attack leaves attack first if no targets.

From what I understand they are they are chasing a enemy unit that fell back or got out of range, so they try to get back into range to engage.

No way to prevent I think, and its really annoying.

manuall control stops it if you catch it
