Please explain the issue you experienced in the most condensed way possible
Units getting stacked on the same tile.

When enemy units get stacked on the same tile, I am unable to perform any direct attack actions. However, AOE attacks such as "shotgun blast", "sweep" or grenade attacks will still cause damage to the stacked units. AOE attacks may also dislodge the stacked units thus allowing normal direct attack actions.

How ithis happens:
1. Enemy units get "knocked-back" onto a tile which is already occupied by a dead body.
2. Entering combat with a large combat crew sometimes cause stacking.

Please explain how to reproduce the issue
Enter combat with a large combat crew, 5 units or more.

How much "pain" is this causing you?
1

Is there anything else you think could help us identify/replicate the issue?
None.

Hey @Sapbatang, thanks for taking the time to report on this. Hope it hasn't caused too much frustration for you! Does this happen during every combat or just some? Can you recall any specific steps you've taken in the lead-up to noticing this? If you have any screenshots relating to this also, could you send them on, please? They could be helpful to our coders! :)

I have observed stacking to occur in 2 situations.

01. Stacking always happens when an enemy unit gets "knocked-back" onto a tile that has a dead body on it. If the tile is unoccupied, there is no problem.
e.g. I attack an enemy. The attack caused the enemy to be "knocked-back" several spaces and land upon a tile that is already occupied by a dead body. This results in stacking.

02. Entering combat with a large combat group has a high tendency to cause some of my own units to either get stacked together or with some of the enemy units.
e.g. I attack a small derelict building with 8 units. When the combat begins, it is very likely that some of my units will get stacked together on one tile.

I only consider this issue as a minor annoyance but it would be nice if it gets fixed.
