0011923: Tactical mode causes adventurers to face the wrong direction
It seems that when you're given control of an unit during adv tactical mode, that unit is counted as facing the direction of the last unit you were controlling.

For example, in this scenario (A,B= adventurers; &= enemy)
A
&
B

I make adventurer A attack the enemy, then make adventurer B attack the enemy.
The enemy then manages to land a hit on adventurer A from behind, despite A being in the middle of executing an action TOWARDS the enemy. The game was considering adventurer A as having the same facing direction as adventurer B.
*Create a party of two adventurers
*Find an enemy somewhere
*Enable tactical mode
*Surround the enemy so it's exactly between the two adventurers
*Make actions towards the enemy with both adventurers (like repeatedly grabbing and releasing)
*Watch as the enemy will often score attacks "from behind" in one of the adventurers
No tags attached.
