Bug Description:

Every archer that I place turns around (180 degree) and stays that way. This is really annoying because they should face the direction placed… where the attention is needed.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Build Archer
  2. Place Archer on/near base
  3. Find nearby enemy and lead back to base near archer
  4. Let archer deal some of the damage until enemy is dead.
  5. With a dead enemy, look at archer, it turned around
  6. Notice any other archer within range turns around also

How do we stop it from turning around? Because archers can’t give full attention to enemies behind. Argh.

Set your archers to Stand and Defend. All that has happened is the archer ran a bit after an enemy, and then returned. You might never have them face the same way all the time, especially if the enemies show up on the sides and in the rear of the archer’s position.

That may work for archers off the ground, but I have archers on the ground with chase.

In that case, they will never face the direction you want them to until an enemy comes along.

When they chase, they run to the enemy. When they return, they run to position and stop. They do not run to position, stop, and turn around.
