      Bug/Issue: T1 PD occasionally does not fire at units that are both in range and in vision.

      I think I noticed it before in casts and it might be a known issue, but just in case it's not I wanted to report it. I clearly noticed it in my own game, since it might have prevented my death if it kept firing. In case anybody wants to investigate it:

      Replay number: 15338420

      Near the end of the 16th minute the PD correctly fires for a while, then at 16:53 it stops firing with 5 units in range and vision, subsequently it fires at and kills 1, then stops again.

        It sounds like similar behavior to this:

        This is something done by the engine. I suspect it has to do with not retargeting something it can't reach. Not sure how / when it resets and if we can reset it ourselves.

        A work of art is never finished, merely abandoned
