Bug - short laser.zip

Hey :)

If you switch to free cam and get closer to your ship... does the laser snap back onto its target..?

I know it's a weird question but it(d help to know the answer :)

Tried to check but looks like there is a bug in saves and they no longer retain battle replays.

If you load the game the battle notification of an ended space battle is no longer available.

Filed a bug for it here.

I noticed the Battle replay notifications weren't available upon loading the save yes, but you have another "Fist" medium attacker ready for battle I moved to a system with the Pink lumeris on it.

I'm asking because I noticed by testing your save that sometimes, thebeams would nto snap on target at all but would snap back when getting closer to the scene- even when the battle was paused...

I'm really confused about this one's bahvior!

I had a save from before but starting the battle it was ok this time.
On the replay it was the same each time.
I remember moving the camera around to make sure and the beams didn't snap on to the enemy ships.

The same happens to rockets sometimes.

But here it is hard for me to track if any damage gets applied to the enemy.

I expect it isn't.

Save before battle and screen:

Also had rockets flying in circles.

Wasn't able to replicate it.

Battle details:

Got another one here with projectile weapons.
Maybe those are misses but if that is the case it would be good if they were not so far from the target.

Also very strange to see them firing so far from a huge Ark.

I made a big zoom and then the weapons did snap on to the target but not sure if it was because of that or the range changed.

Yeah there's definitely something odd going on there...

I noticed for the beams, for example they would snap back onto the target when closing in with the camera even if the battle was paused.

These targetting problems seem to occur only when viewing the battle from a distance...
