One line summary of your issue
can't fire even though i only walked

What platform are you running the game on?

Steam

What operating system do you use?
Windows 10
What version are you running?
1.2.0-345R

Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
whenever there are newly spawned enemies which i get in range in the first round they spawn or i get sight of turrets (not only the red outline, the visible target) this happens:
when i choose a unit, it autoselects run, which should only happen out of combat.
I switch to walk, select a place i want to go, get a red line of sight and when i hold my mouse over the target, it shows the to hit percentages.
so i walk my mech and the game changes to the next unit.
no firing possible

Sometimes when you have finished off the first lance, the game will switch out of combat mode until you get close to the newly spawned lance. Once out of combat mode it will stay that way for at least one turn. If the game autoselects the sprint movement, you are not in combat mode. I wish the game would let you switch back to combat mode any time it is your turn.
