Having a unit Guard until I say otherwise?

from Elemental Forums

Is there a way to just tell a unit to guard until I tell him otherwise, So that it doesn't keep switching the camera to the "idle" unit every turn?

Pressing G or hitting the Guard button on the actions tab should do this.

Hmmm...maybe it's a bug, because it only seems to work half the time. I'll hit g, and it will work for a few turns, but then eventually the camera will switch back to the unit as if it's idle (and not guarding)

I've had this problem before, what I ended up doing is cancel the guard setting and then moving it and moving it back and guarding again.

I think it happened when I accidentally moved a unit that was set to guard which threw something off.

Same problem, Guard doesn't seem to work properly. It will randomly stop my turn, or focus on the unit if I hit tab, etc.
