Possible movement bug
« on: June 29, 2009, 03:22:44 PM »
I've had a couple of instances where a few ships have been unable to move despite displaying 100% engine health. After saving and reloading the game I'm then able to move the affected ships once again.

It seems to happen when ships are dragged off by EtherJets which are then destroyed - it doesn't happen to every ship that's dragged off however.

I'll try and find a reliable way of reproducing it.

That's probably what it is -- they think they are still being held by the tractor beam, from the sounds of it.  If you can find a reliable way to reproduce it that's awesome and very helpful, but don't sink much time into it because odds are that this isn't a reliable issue.  I'll take a look in the code, and see if I can track that down.  Thanks!
