Request: A setting for how enemies travel: in groups (packs) or in a column, follow-the-leader style, with tanks driving in columns.
Why: Big waves look messy, and tanks drive through each other.
Plan: Add the formation choice, and put tanks in columns first (see the Bugs thread "Tanks drive through each other").

Backlog follow-up (Oct 19, 2026): once tanks drive in columns, check the balance of tank waves. A column may reach the base differently from a loose group, so tank wave strength may need adjusting.

Added in 0.1.8.2 (Oct 19, 2026, 5:31 PM).
Every enemy now has a formation setting: pack (moves as a group, like Tin Troopers and Spiders) or column (follows the leader in single file, like Tanks, Heavy Knights, the Giant Worm and the Mech Boss). Tank waves were checked before and after on the same maps: no harder than before.
