Used to mark animals to be hunted by hunters.

Hunters only hunt when equipped with a ranged weapon. Certain animals will typically retaliate when harmed. When such animals are marked for hunting, a notice will appear, indicating that the player may want to avoid hunting them.

Hunters are coded to shoot marked animals from a considerable distance. This is done to minimize the risk of injury should it turn manhunter and try to retaliate.

Once a hunter's target is downed, they will finish it off at point-blank range.

As of version 0.14.1234 (15 July 2016) projectiles fired by hunting colonists no longer intercept random targets.
