			Target selection is based on the scan range defined by [[TargetDistanceCoefficientDefault]] or its [[TechnoTypes\|technotype]] override of [[TargetDistanceCoefficient]]. If targets are available within that range, then closest of those is selected. If no targets are available within that range, then first built by that enemy is selected.
