Defensive Positions

What does it mean by 'squads?'
Just wondering what the mod author meant by that and how to form them? Does it mean every defensive position setup is considered one? It cant be though because it mentions you being able to make 9 squads and you can only make 4 positions via adv mode iirc

How do you assign colony buildings to squads?

Squads are groups of colonists (or buildings thanks to the awesome update). Positions are where they go. If, for example, you want to assign your non-food cooling AC units to a group for easy activation or temperature adjustment, select the ones you want to group and hold down control and a number on the numpad. This will bind that grouping to that key. Positions need to be activated separately from squads. For example, if you positioned your colonists in formation behind cover like in the mod artwork, then selected them and hit control+1, they would be squad 1. If you then assigned the position to position IV, you could easily hit 1 to select those colonists, then draft and hit IV to send them to those positions.

What if you do not have a IV button to press?
