Units auto attacking harvester, before combat unit

Question

Can we improve the AI of the units so that they attack the combat unit over harvester?&nbsp; For example there was an attacking Titan and harvester 2 tiles away.&nbsp; I moved my orca next to Titan, which was also next to harvester. It unloaded on harvester before I could tell it to attack Titan.&nbsp; I get there is some strategy to moving units that can take some punishment or expendable to draw fire for other units to attack, but this seems like a no brainer.&nbsp; Attack combat units before harvester if auto attacking.&nbsp;

why not just click on the one you want to attack

Because I wanted it to attack from the other side than what it would have if I just clicked attack from original position.&nbsp;

then click the target when it’s about to arrive.harvy should be the default primary target in most cases. Just don’t change that&nbsp;

Maybe certain units should be aimed at destroying harvesters when there is one around. A good example is the attack bike, it can't even fend for itself when there is a nearby pitbull. JJT's should also first target harvesters as they are a hit and run unit. Units like tick tank, predator tank, scorpion tank, mutant marauder and grenadiers should focus on a vehicle if one tries to attack it before focusing back on the harvester. If there is an infantry or air, it should ignore it.

The point I am trying to make is that the unit should have a priority of combat unit over harvester when auto attacking. If I am moving other units around I shouldn't have to make that extra click.
