You give a move order somewhere, you launch the drones and you stop. WHY? You just launched the drones so you never wantet to stop moving! A good counter example is the Medivac turbothrust, wich don't stop your vehicle. Both abilitys are non-targeting ones so why the difference?
After all Battle Tanks is still a WARCRAFT 3 map. We cannot simply decide "tank shall stop" or "tank shall move one".
It completely depends on the corresponding skill in Warcraft 3. Order this Undead Spiderking hero to cast "Locust Swarm" while he is moving, and he does stop.
Just sometimes, like in the example of the Mediavac skill, there are possibilities to play a trick to the engine.
