Wow. Finally realised why I sometimes lose units in buildings So you can really click which side they should leave and they just stay inside? Ptsd?

Does this have anything to do with dragging the mouse while clicking? Seems like if you drag the mouse at all, the game takes it as a facing direction and ignores it?

you mean dragging in a direction with rightclick?
exiting a building is being achieved by pressin d + leftclick. no dragging here

well you gotta make sure that the side you want your units to exit the building actually has a door.
but yes, sometimes it just bugs out. you get the square which indicates that you selected the exit command but when pressing it nothing happens.
in that case you have to unselect the unit/ building and repeat the process. makes the difference between getting out safely or losing a squad to a grenade/ flamethrower

in some rare cases, the unit wont be able to leave the building at all no matter what you do. happened to me twice so far i think. in that case they are doomed to die there

i even can recall what maps it happened on.
Rails in the big wooden house to next to the north fuel and Lienne forrest in the city stone house next to the VP.
i know because they stayed there for a ludacris amount of time without being under fire, just couldnt get them out
