Ship to ship combat

Ship to ship combat

The one thing that bugs me about this game is how ships move into a certain range of another ship to attack then stop moving. It makes the battles bland, regardless of all the fancy weapon effect and visual mods people are making. Is it at all possible to make ships maneuver around while keeping in weapons range of the targeted ship? The larger ships flying around while in combat would make it more intense, as well as utilize the three dimension aspect of space.

Woop, I came here and didn't even say anything about the topic. And my Edit button seems to have disappeared.

I think it is fine how capital's are right now, maybe the one's that broadside could have some lateral movement, like circle strafing around the target. Frigates on the other hand, it would be nice to have some movement with certain frigates, like the main fighting ones, but ones like the long range frigates it makes sense for them to not be flying all over the place. Except for maybe the Illuminator as it has 3 weapons.
