Drifter patrol

Just a trick to make the rediculously expensive drifters a bit more resilient. Use the patrol command and make them move between two close by spots (about 1-2 drifter-lengths in travel distance). The result is a fast moving, fast turning drifter that will probably take a marine more than a single clip to kill, buying you time to get it out of harms way.

You can use the command queue to have the drifter begin patrolling after he finishes growing his current structure by holding shift and selecting a move and patrol point after he starts building. It doesn't work if you just shift right click on the building to grow though, he actually has to be growing it when you queue the other commands.
