Fortress repair resets when targeting
« on: March 12, 2012, 05:17:54 AM »
In my last game I tried having my fortress target specific ships.  Every time I directly targeted a ship the repair timer reset as if it had just moved even though it stayed in place.  Correct me if I am wrong but I don't think Fortresses are supposed to reset like that.

Known issue with explicit target orders in general.
All ships, when given an explicit target order move at least a pixel (typically much more), even if their target is completely in range. Even this tiny move is enough to reset the "standstill" timer.

I'll link the mantis post once I find it.
