Other Armies Ruining Timing

[JQLibet]

On the one hand, it's nice that my allies will send armies to join mine. On the other, it's very annoying when I time my army moves to hit a particular province at a particular time, only to see my army delayed by a late-coming ally army. My armies will apparently automatically restart their movement toward the province.

Is there anyway to fix this? I would prefer that allied armies only be able to join mine when mine are stopped. I had a stack wiped because my reinforcements, which were 2 days out, were suddenly delayed more than two weeks because an ally joined an extra 1,000 infantry to the reinforcement stack.

That only happens when a friendly army attaches to yours, so untick the can attach to box.

He likes armies attaching, he doesn't like armies attaching a day or two before they leave the province screwing up his plans. I've had the exact same thing happen to me multiple times and I think his solution is ideal for solving it. Attach to stationary armies, don't allow attaching to moving armies.

checking and unchecking attach to army is not so possible in a MP game as pausing it for long periods to in MP is just plain annoying for everyone else.

Attach to army is also wonky. I've had the AI attach to an unit with the attach option off while I have another unit with the attach option on in the province next to it.

I don't remember this delay issue happening before 1.4
