I broke a pocket, but my units didn't lose their isolated status. Server game vs hadradi.

Looks like you broke it with a unit from inside the pocket? It's always been the case that moving an isolated unit will not cause the pocket to become unisolated. You have to do it with a unit from outside the pocket. IIRC, if you launch an attack anywhere it will recalculate the paths and will unisolate those units in the pocket.

Oh, I did not know that. Good to know.

Are there any plans to change it in a future?

Attack can be made with a pocketed unit of any size?

The attack can be anywhere on the map, as far as I know, because after every attack it has to go through checking for isolation status so it retraces. This isn't something that we can change. I think it has to do with slowing the game down to much after each move, although I'm not really sure. I just know it's been like this forever and it was too difficult (or had too many bad side effects) to change.

Thanks, nice to know.
