You probably already experienced what I gonna ask. How it is the tolerance of distance for constant target when we are following or targeting an enemy and it goes outside of our view? Sometimes I am following an enemy with attack mode for melee damage and I can sometimes follow him even when it is not possible to see the target anymore in my game window.

It happens also when I am attacking from distance and the enemy gets outside of my view. My target still works if I somehow find a way to see the enemy fast enough. If I wait for too long, I lose my target on it.

The last way that I see this effect is when an enemy is going up and down in stairs. Sometimes my target will lock for a few seconds if I change floor but return very soon to the target floor.

What is the explanation and reason for such behaviour?

I've noticed that the attack mark can stay selected on the creature up to 8 sqm horizontally and 6 sqm vertically (1 more sqm of the vision area). On more sqm and it'll say "You lost the target".

This is interesting because sometimes it stays and sometimes it goes away immediately and honestly about this I have no clue.
