Look we all know sieges are broken and will be broken for a very long time. It's not easy issuing commands during a siege from a first/3rd person view when you have limited sight and can't pause.
This isn't Total War where I can see the entire map from a top down view and pause/slow down time and make careful and accurate troop placemets.
The devs know this and their solution was to "automate" the siege process. You can let the AI do it's thing and just strap along for the ride, but this routine is basically a meat-grinder which requires that you have at least double or triple the size of the local garrison.
You CAN work around this with a smaller force if you decide to take manual control of the troops but this is only viable as long as you, the player, are alive. All it takes is one stray arrow and that's it, the AI takes over again and it doesn't always resume the siege behaviour properly.
All I ask is that I can issue a basic F1+F3 command after death so I don't have to keep retreating every single time the AI refuses to work.
Like it or not sieges are a big (if underwhelming) part of Bannerlord gameplay and sooner or later you are going to take part in one (or more) and given the fact that they are going to continue being broken for a very long time please consider adding this option.
This is a very simple addition that requires no extra time to develop and can make sieges functional until they get properly addressed.
