I've noticed today while leveling abyssea la-thein, when I would auto-target a mob that argoed me, and I would Deploy my Automaton onto it so that it can cast magic/attack...after a few seconds or upon the automaton smacking it once/casting magic on it...i would be disengaged... Even when I would switch targets myself...and deploy...I'd get disengaged.

Anyone else having this problem?

Steps:

1. Deploy macro that has /wait 1 and /attack so that I attack same mob as my Deployed target.
2. Attack worm.
3. I switch to mob before first dies so that I don't lose my attack stance.
4. Deploy Automaton once 1st worm is dead.
5. Attack Worm
6. Automaton Attacks/Casts Magic on any frame with corresponding abilities.
7. Automaton's action takes place, right away I am disengaged.

2nd Senerio

2. Attack worm.
3. Second worm agros.
4. Upon death, I auto-target agroed worm.
5. Deploy Automaton.
6. Automaton Attacks/Casts Magic on any frame with corresponding abilities.
7. Automaton's action takes place, right away I am disengaged.

Macro In Game I'm Using:

/pet "Deploy" <t>
/wait 1
/attack

This macro has always worked for me in the past, have they changed how these commands work?
