Starsector 0.98a is out! (03/27/25)
Quote from: ShadowWraith on February 18, 2025, 07:59:23 PMMostly missiles, but i've seen the pirate onslaught will fire at friendly ships like they're enemies sometimes, so that's a projectile. Yes AGC is installed and i suspected that it could be screwing with it some how so some ships have it completely removed. I've finished for the day but i'll check later to see if the ships causing problems are A. using AGC and B. have custom ai enabled.EDIT: checked today and no AGC not enabled but AI pilot is aggressive if that means anything but they still try to fire through friendly ships like it's not there.This looks like it may be difficult to solve.Thus far we know the issuse:Causes ships to try to shoot through allies, as if the allies weren't in the line of fire.Happens only for player ships, not for the enemy.Affects both missile and non-missile projectile weapons.AGC is not the cause.Can you tell me if the issue happens only for ships with Custom AI hullmod, or for all ships? And does it happen when you remove AI Tweaks?Can you post your mod list?QuoteQuick question with the AI when giving orders does the type of AI decide how quickly it will carry it out? As i've seen some ships that are 25% life left, given the retreat order and have a way clear so don't need to move around any other ships, but will instead go all ramming speed on the enemy?Retreat maneuver is handled by vanilla AI in all cases, even for ships with Custom AI hullmod. I'm not sure what governs how quickly vanilla AI carries out orders, but my experiance is that it considers them just a low priority suggestions.

Got it thanks,Just come up with a suggestion, could staggered firing have additional options?Say, toggle on and off for needlers.
Edit: Ok just started and have AI tweaks disabled and just witnessed my Legion execute another ship from behind, in a what the hell are you doing sort of fashion, and a then it tried it again with another ship. Also something to note is that it's always the same weapon if they is anything, its the Azrael reaper missile launcher that seems to be the weapon that is causing. this EDIT Update: i think it might be AGC as the ships that had it settings reset are now not shooting at friendly ships now?

So, keep pressuring DesperatePeter In the mean time, I can extend the file-based config. It's not very user friendly, but will allow to configure staggered fire per weapon type.
General Feedback!I don't know if this is a major issue or not but sometime when in combat my ships just ball in a cluster at the center on the map doing nothing. Doesn't happen that often but it does occur at random. Only really happens if I don't set any capture or rally orders to fleet. Also ship set to escort like for example a Heron will go to the front of the engagement and dies. Might be only me.
Seems like the Custom AI seems to be having trouble angling omni shields properly, either dropping them at low flux (like 20%), facing them away from the nearest/highest source of damage towards lower ones. This was observed on 1.12.4, not sure if the recent patch fixes that specific issue.
