Yeah, Confed. I haven't tested any other factions yet.

Map I play is Crimson Bond. I give it a quick try last night and noticed the same thing with fighters still. It just seems that some of them get stuck trying to return to refuel. I watched a small group for a bit to see if I could notice anything and it seemed like they couldn't figure out...

Ok. I'll see about giving it a try soon.

Wild thought...are fighters in any way tied to the base that created them? As in, are the "dumb" fighters acting that way because they were built at the HQ?

I wonder if that's messing with the fighters then. They don't appear to be docking with the HQ properly.

I only play one map (I'll look up the name later today). I did try moving the HQ after our last back and forth about harvesters. I noticed last night that harvesters were not using the HQ to drop off. I saw them going to the nearest transports instead.

They simply get stuck or appear to get stuck. They'll stick around the HQ but don't do anything. They don't appear too be docking and then reforming. They just start sitting pretty.

So, I'm now pretty convinced something weird is going on or I'm not comprehending part of the fighter dynamic. Fired it up again last night, started making a group of fighters (8 Hellcats, 8 Bearcats, 8 Excals) and had them go to a rally point not far from the carrier and HQ. I noticed that...

Hi! Always good to see a friendly ship! Be sure to check the Tech Support forum or make a post if you can't find the solution to the issue you are having.

I don't think it was damaging the machine, just forcing it to work in an odd way or something. I'm still not 100% sure it was the drive. Because the drive light was not flashing but something was making that noise and it sounded like my extra hard drive (my main disk is solid state so if it's...

Oh, it made a noise that did not sound good. Like the drive was just hammering itself in a very odd way. At first, I thought it was something weird with the gfx card (just got my dad's hand-me down GTX Titan) like the fans on super high. But then I think it was the drive because of the sound. It...

So running with that command line prompt made my hard disk sound like it was dying and the game run with a stutter every few seconds. It was so bad I had to stop playing after a few minutes. Which files were you wanting from that dir? I see two with recent time stamps labeled ErrorLog and...

Yeah, I noticed that in the second game. I usually push the Ranger out at least 5 klicks from the HQ. I'll move the HQ more away from the asteroids the next time.

Yeah, I had organized a primary interception group (Hellcats, Bearcats, Excals, and T-Bolts) and set into a fighter screen formation (even though there were no capships with them). And as the group grew I started to notice little groups of fighters get dumb stuck around bases. I also noticed...

I'll make sure to do that next time. It seemed like to me that it was related to the large number of fighters in a group. Now, it could just be my imagination, but it seemed that they behaved more like normal in smaller groups. Again, I was trying to figure out the new systems so wasn't paying...

Gave the most recent version a go last night. The ships look great. The new gameplay mechanics were a bit...interesting. Definitely still getting used to them. One thing I did notice was that seemed if I grouped a large number of fighters together some of them got, for lack of a better word...

Man, I need to fire this up with an opponent. I'm sure I'll get my clock cleaned a few times but hot damn if this isn't getting better every post!

Happy Birthday to making ourselves feel old! 20 years! Where does the time keep going?

If you're ever up near Seattle, be sure to let me know! I'd love a chance to go up.

Hahaha! That's great! I'm assuming there was just a few, "DIE! By the very weapons you adore!"
