I've tried getting my npc pilot to shoot at thargoids scouts with the lancer fighter but he wont shoot like at all weather its by attack command or defend command when a scout is shooting at me he will follow it but wont fire.
Can i get some help confirming a bug with SLF

Yes that bug was fixed. the npc will shoot at normal ship or a thargiod but not the scouts
I can confirm there seems to be something wrong with using SLFs against Thargoid scouts. I tried the Lance and noticed my pilot wasn't firing at the scouts and thought it might be the ammo bug so many have reported before. So I switched to a fixed beam Taipan so no ammo issue and again, AI pilot won't fire on Scouts at all, regardless of the commands I give them.

I last used Lances vs scouts a while ago, but they used to fly around one ship for like 3 minutes, then suddenly triple shot and kill it.
AX combat AI needs some work.

I also have the issue with my NPC not firing the Lance at Thargoid scouts. She fires the AX Taipan at them just fine.
I confirmed that the Lance has a full load of ammo, fire groups are set modules powered on and I can fire the weapon myself.
There is still an ammo bug, but a newly equipped fighter starts with a full load of ammo. If the Lance is recovered with a partial load of ammo, it will not replenish and when the fighter is destroyed, the replacement will have the ammo level of the destroyed fighter.
