I don't think it's a behavior problem. Like I wrote in my first post I checked them and they're like yours.
But I recognized if I give the attack command directly, press Z and switch to tactical i can see that everybody of the group has the the command "attack". If give it the attack command over tactital everbody has the command "standard attack". And I think that's the point. With the command "attack" Meeles don't attack with the command "standard attack" they do.
Ah, I see. I never give commands to my companions, I just let them fight however the AI decides. I don't select targets unless its a large battle and then I do so through the tactical mode.
Given how awkwardly the hold command functions, and that the companions constantly try to re-engage enemies after you tell them to ignore combat, I'm not surprised the attack command is also broken. You should probably just ignore your companions and let them fight unless you are issues orders using the tactical camera.
