Moving Agents in Combat

[(CB) Shabbos Goy Trump]

I am very new to this game, and just had my first ordeal. Is there a way to move agents engaged in suppression to safety if they take too much damage? I select them but they seem to not move anywhere, and only attack the ordeal. Can you position them in rooms, if they have a ranged weapon?

You can drag a box using left click and select your group you want to move. By pressing Right click (the button you use to move the camera) you can have them move to said destination (can be anywhere in the facility, such as elevators, sub rooms, hallways, and other main rooms). You should have learned this in the tutorial if you have done it.

In some situation, you would want to individually left click on your agent and right click them to move to X area. Handy in some of the later game events as you will not accidentally select more agents then you need, however it might be difficult if they are all close together.

in a lot of other situations, you can order the employee to work on an abnormality and then cancel the work. This is more for if you want a specific employee to leave a crowd of employees.

He wants to know if you can move them to a different place in the same room.

And the answer is no, if they are in the same room they will run closer until they are in range and start attacking, unless you want to move them to the other side of the abnormality in which case you just tell them to move to a room on the side you want them to move to then have them stay in the room. Also if you move them out of range of the monster's attack the monster will target someone in range which let's you move the original person back safely (unless the monster hits multiple/everyone or has a long range attack).

You sure you can't.

Many abnormality aoe attacks are room wide. So it doesn't really matter where they are standing.
