When raiders or animals attack, it is annoying that I cannot select shooters, right-click on enemies and give the command to shoot them, this option is simply inactive, in the context menu it says that it is impossible to aim, the shooters must first approach the enemies. Is there a mod that will just make the Pawns approach the enemies at a distance of a shot, and then attack them automatically?

I didn't know it was a mod, but you can click a red "aim" target in the commands and then click the enemy. I'm 99% sure it's not a mod because I think Quill18 does it in his unmodded "Beta 1.0" run that just ended in non-beta 1.0.

But if it IS a mod, I'd guess it was Combat Extended. Which everybody should use including Ludeon :D

I never got how pawns in the game could have such insanely bad reactions to such mundane things.

Well, this red button does not do what I ask. When I press this button and hover over the enemy, the selected Pawns simply stand still and await the enemy. And I need them to go to the enemy and immediately shoot as soon as the distance allows. Still need a mod that does this.

Aha. No I missed that part of the request sorry.

I know of no mod that does this. I think most people don't want it because combat almost requires micro or you lose pawns, and giving you more ways to do less micro is generally a bad idea.

Not exactly what you want, but you may get some joy from Search and Destroy. I've never used it but seen others on YouTube do so.

I know it's not exactly what you're after, but I've found Run & Gun to be very handy when either closing distance or high tailing it.
