I was playing the other day in a large map with a bunch of AI opponents. I am TEC. I was in the midst of a battle that was massive and my screen was clogged with ships. I'll admit, my PC is only a 2.4 so it chugs pretty good when that happens.
Anyway, I could have sworn that a bunch of my own ships were attacking one of my capital ships. The only kinds of ships I had in my fleet were: heavy crusiers, light frigates, and capital ships. I know what the shield-restore ability looks like when that fires off so I know it wasn't that. It actually looked like multiple lasers all directed at my capital ship.
The enemy I was fighting was Vasari and there were a number of their capital ships present. Do one of their ships have the ability to turn my forces onto themselves? Was it a bug? (I'm still playing w/ ver 1.03). Or was I just misinterpreting what I saw?
FYI, I got my a__ handed to me in that battle, but when I reloaded and fought the same battle again, I routed them, which had me thinking maybe it was a bug...
Thanks!
