Can be set to yes or no and determines if this unit is a Hunter Seeker.
This tag will make units with the fly locomotor use HunterSeekerDescendProximity, HunterSeekerDetonateProximity, HunterSeekerEmergeSpeed, HunterSeekerAscentSpeed, and HunterSeekerDescentSpeed. The unit will follow its target and damage it using the primary weapon when the Hunter Seeker comes closer than HunterSeekerDetonateProximity. The primary weapon is not actually fired; only its Damage and Warhead are used to deliver the damage.
Hunter Seekers will never fire their weapons because the target is always considered out of range. Hunter Seekers are never affected by Ion Storms.

Note
InfantryTypes with the tag C4=yes can still destroy buildings.
Bugs/Side-Effects/Unexpected Limitations
- This tag makes when selling construction yard You won't get an engineer. but got the starting soldiers of that side instead.
- Using this tag with AircraftTypes will cause AircraftTypes to fly abnormally. Ordering AircraftTypes to attack This will make AircraftTypes able to fly again.
