Units not following, even though it says they are in console

[xeryx01]

I have noticed an issue with multi-phased missions. Even though in the console it says a unit is set to follow, their behavior is not following MY UNITS, They work just fine when the mission is started (not mission-related), but after an engagement ends they do not go back to follow the leading or heaviest target of my lance mech. Originally I thought it was settings being incorrect but it isn't because when you move on the map before an engagement they work just fine!

here are my new settings in my settingsmodpack.json

"AI": {
"FollowPlayer": {
"Pathfinding": "Alternative",
"Target": "HeaviestMech",
"StopWhen": "OnEnemyDetected",
"MaxDistanceFromTargetBeforeSprinting": 60,
"TargetZoneRadius": 90,
"TimeToWaitForPathfinding": 60,
"TicksToWaitForPathfinding": 20
}

here is the log,
output_log.txt
output.log
as you can see everything is fine in the console, but I have been watching the movement of the tanks (for 8 turns and gave up) It is as though the Target 'Mech is being lost from the lead lance (mine) and being moved to one of their members in the lance. Then they just keep moving around each other, and will not follow me, until I go and detect an enemy!

After much long thought about this issue, I firmly believe the allies are not being reassigned properly is the cause of the crash from the other thread. Causing logical and fatal errors when leaving the battle. It would be really great if other people could get involved and perform some Blackout Missions and watch for these abhorrent behaviors and see if the mission will crash afterward to confirm.

I discovered certain checks I was using GetVisibleEnemyUnits and GetDetectedEnemyUnits from the vanilla code were picking up dead units. I now filter out dead units and this fixes the problem.

In develop for release v1.5.
