Alright so I love these games and have played them many times. But my God, the combat queue is so incredibly broken. It seems that as soon as you switch characters, anything you have done with that character's combat queue is simply discarded and the game replaces your actions with it's own incredibly poor combat decisions. The queue is literally wiped the moment you switch, is it not? Therefore it is impossible to control more than one toon at a time in combat. The other infuriating queue issue is that even if you ARE directly controlling the character, that character is going to perform at least one previously-queued combat action before proceeding with my direct commands, EVEN IF I CLEAR OUT THE ENTIRE COMBAT QUEUE MANUALLY.
In short, whoever programmed the queueing system should probably be shot. Then a modder should step forth to fix all this, and subsequently be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
