When I want to retreat my scarab but massive enemy army surround it. I have to keep pressing x button(sending movement order) if not the scarab will stop to attack them and be destroyed. But if I can press x only once then I will be able to focus on controlling my remaining army. Do you think the movement mechanism should be adjusted ?

There is your problem right there “surrounded” as stupid as it may seem you can’t let your units get surrounded because they simply can’t just escape.
you have to kill the surrounding units although I will say when you tell a unit to do something it should do it the first time with out question you can tell jpbs to attack a base as soon as they are hit they stop attacking.
ive never had a scarb surrounded but I assume it works the same as any other unit surrounded

Yeah I acknowledge that let my scarab get surrounded is a bad play lol. But what my point exactly is scarab should following player’s order first instead of attacking nearby hostile units automatically. The inability to escape of scarab surrounded by tanks and jpb surrounded by cannon fodders are not the same thing. Actually if I keep pressing x button scarab can escape because it is able to cross most terrain so scarab can walk above tanks while jpb can’t walk above cannon fodders.
Outside halo wars…scarabs can step on literally every unit but in halo wars some units (tanks) occupy as much space as a scarab. If sizing was “realistic” what OP wants would make sense…but we’re in halo wars after all xD

The Scarab is thought to be indestructible by the Banished. Priorizing retreating would go against that.

The scarab ignores anything on the ground and still steps on it.

I wouldn’t say he ignores it but…
