Dont know what happened but lately this has been driving me crazy. Im in a chase with a speed reversing su 85 and my tankas will stop shooting at it and aim at inf targets. Happens with other tanks to but su85 chases are too crucial for retarded shit like that. Its not that tank loses sight, its aiming and Shooting then inf appears and turret starts tracking them. The only way you I can get aim on tank back is to stop and aim

happens at the soviests, i remember when my IS-2 saw a tiger, and some infantry and started to shoot at the infantry,and it did not follow my orders to attack the tiger.

Target priority is shit in this game. I don't know how each unit decides which target too prioritize. It doesn't shoot at tanks with the lowest HP, and it rather targets infantry than tanks. Even the Panther an dedicated anti tank vehicle shoots at infantry when they're tanks nearby.

You're absolutely right. Target prioritizing doesn't work too well. I think any unit tend to shoot to the enemy unit that shoots at it no matter if it's a tank vs infantry or other tank and so on....

Also sometimes the tank lose sight of the target temporarily and then retargets another unit (often an inf squad).

To the player the tank still sees the other tank, but to the tank it sees a "new" tank appear.

I wish AT Guns just had a "Vehicles Only" option built-in.

One of my favorite things to do against SU-85s is to run a grenadier around the side of them, because they will target the infantry and start turning around to face them. Then you blitzkreig in a P4 and laugh.
