Radar Dampening?

That was my assumption, a hybrid between radar dampening and auto-kiting behavior.

its because they go to their retreat distance from the target, which is nearly always outside the dampening range. manually move them inside radar range and their preferred target setting should cause them to shoot the thing you want. Had this problem with a Mk V siege tower recently.

the item here was the missile station thing - they refused to get closer to it when ordered to attack.

its probably just a function of snipers where if they are ordered to shoot stuff they dont try to move into range (because they are *always* in range.. of most things)
