Default Re: Why don\'t ships obey their $@#$@# fleet orders

Just tested this again. Started a new game. All default settings. Build a frigte with missles and DUC, put it in a fleet, give fleet don't hurt me orders, attack something, and watch it die.

Is it really just me or is this normal?

Did you create a new race or did you use a TDM race? Most of these races break formation by default.

The latest instace was a light cuiser with PD, Cargo (with troops loaded) and boarding parties.
If a ship has a cargo bay, it probably falls into the Category of "Transport". Make sure transports have orders to stick with the fleet.

Could someone please please test out the above?? And tell me if your ship obeyed the fleet orders or ignores them like I've been experiencing. It seems like I'm the only one who has had this happen!!

I have tested it and can confirm it. I have sent a bug report to Aaron.
