you sure you dont have the option turned on in game?

I've always had auto-face target enabled in game. There was a change how old and new skill manager handle using abilities:

Old: stops using GCD abilities when you turn away from enemy
New: tries to use GCD abilities when you turn away from enemy. If you disable auto-turn in game, you are spammed with on screen in-game error message "Target is not in range." If you enable auto-face in game, your character keeps turning to enemy to use attacks.

Both ways have their merits, so I was wondering if it was possible to introduce a toggle in options so people can choose which way they prefer it. Auto facing is nice in assist mode because you keep using attacks whilst running around and dodging, but in unnerfed Coil T6 you had to stop all actions for 'Blighted Bouquet' or you die and in T7 you had to face away from arena so you don't petrify the whole party. All you had to do to handle those mechanics was to turn away, in new bot you'll have to make smart use of 'enemy cast ID' or 'player/enemy has buff ID'. And if there is no channel or buff ID to capture, you have to enable/disable bot.
So again, I'm of two minds, the change is nice in some aspects, a bit trickier to handle in other.
