AI overvalues collision threat over enemy fire threat
« on: March 11, 2012, 02:32:05 PM »
I've noticed that when I'm flying around in a large ship, and I pass behind one of my ships with omni shields, it will deploy said shields in an attempt to prevent collision damage, even though I'm good enough to not crash into them. Not exactly a problem, unless...

... Enemies are incoming (missiles, fighters, bombers, capships, whatever), and either it decides to slowly rotate the shields around to face them at the last second, or it keeps them facing me the whole time. And then they die.
