Another Bug Report

from Sins Forums
It seems that sometimes my ships refuse to attack. I cant reproduce it even after hours of trying but it happens pretty often, at least 6 or 7 times a game. It seems to happen more in the late game. Has anyone been able to reproduce this bug? When I click to attack my ships treat it like a movement order. It only lasts about a min or less then things start working normaly again but it has caused some harry moments during a few battles.

I am running version .18

is your game slowing down at this point, I have had this problem a few times in the mid to late game, it seems to not be a bug so much as comp lag, i.e. you click on the ship but the display is behind the actual gameplay meaning that instead of clicking on the ship you saw, the game thinks you clicked on open space.

I havent noticed any slow down when it happens but it does seem to happen in the late game. It shoudnt be comp lag. I have a fast machine. Two Gigs of RAM, Dual Raptors in RAID 0, Two 7800GTXs in SLI, AMD 4400+ overclocked to 5400+ speed.

Whatever is causing it, it still needs to be fixed imop. The fact it is happening to multiple people should be cause for concern to the dev.
