That stuff works well, but just in case it needs a better explanation... In the first method... With nothing under the pointer, an idle worker will be used. If a unit is under the pointer, the new task will be appended to its queue. There is no reason to hover the pointer over an idle worker, unless you are not sure whether that worker is in fact idle. In the second method... The task is to be done immediately by a busy worker that is under the pointer. It simply cancels the worker's current queue and assigns it to the new task. Searching for an idle worker is programmatically more difficult, otherwise the second method would do that instead of using the first method to accomplish the same thing. :D
