Sometimes, yeah. Seems to target whoever is closest to the gate, but that might just be my experience

It might be like this: a target is randomly selected every time the Jaeger has to respawn. The person who was targeted last time has just as much of a chance to be targeted as anyone else, unless they're unreachable

Most likely.

I wish Jaeger wouldn't be able to teleport, and instead, you could trap it with certain timed doors if done correctly, I managed to do that once on STD mission.

At the simplest as far as I understand, if the Jaeger has to respawn because all targets are unreachable, it randomly selects a new target. If the current target manages to clear agro, then it randomly selects a new target, sometimes the same person.

The ways to make it change target are if the targets gets downed or goes somewhere the Jaeger can't get to without using the elevators. I suspect that psychosis in most cases might also make the jaeger change off of a player in full psychosis.

And of course when it isn't a permanent feature of the map, it should be randomly selecting a target from available targets each time it spawns.

I do not know if kicking Jaeger when it has grabbed someone switches it's target. The first time I did it, I was late and the target was downed so it wasn't an appropriate target anymore. The second time I did it, it seemed to go back after the person it was going for before so either it didn't switch or when it randomly chose, it picked them again.
