It has been a bug from beginning of DE, the attack move will make units attack for a few seconds and then walk straight to the end ignoring all enemy units in between, and then die.
Attack move command only last for a few secs, and they would be like move command after that.
Also units stuck attacking a piece of wall, instead of prioritising units.
Also units that are being attacked do not fight back but instead keep throwing torches at nearby building…
These bugs have been around since DE…that’s a few years! Idk what aoe3 devs are doing, instead of fixing bugs they released all kinds of gimmicky mechanisms and units…
On the other hand any bugs in aoe2 would be fixed in 2 months at most, successful or not at least the aoe2 devs are trying… aoe3 devs don’t even try.

Artillery that are not gatling or salvo cannons (rivadoquines), or that do not mount/dismount are even more clumsy than the other types of units. Many times they will not shoot on command, or will simply mount if the target is out of range, but not far enough away to justify switching from one mode to another.

It’s odd, I know for a while it was broken, but then for a few months Attack Move was working. I totally agree it’s not working correctly now (I just played a game of spamming cassadors into giant grens, guess who benefits when attack move isn’t working too well).
Anyway, it’s kinda extra sad because it was working at one point.

Do you mean Joe R. Biden the current President of the United States?
Im very disappointed that aoe3 devs don’t bother fixing basic bugs like these. Otherwise aoe3 is a beautiful classic game. Now I don’t even want to continue playing it with all the bugs.
I have reported these bugs in bug section countless times in the past 3 years

I don’t know why this problem occur but usually even the game is not lagging.
This works ideally until there are a large number of units on the map. That is, age 4-5 with a full population limit. then such lags begin. This is a command code error, this is an error in the code of the oldest game. And it’s very old.
HELLO
Also if you have multiple units as hand attack unit, range units or cav units and you use the attack move , the only ones that attack are the range units, the hand attack units just do the Michael Jackson dance ,

I am on this topic again idk when this problem will be fixed.
unit pathing remains poor, vills idle off eachother, units do loop de loops when attacking especially melee cav, units sometimes get stuck in buildings like markets, etc.
