known bugs:
subjugator quantum pulse death message is wrong
can use navigation and weapons at the same time
miner AI's sometimes don't dock when under attack (even without EMP/quantum)
missiles chasing small ships and utterly failing
infiltrators can launch while under attack

Although all those bugs are old, and the last two aren't bugs. It's just not working as you want it to.

That's always been my definition of a bug.. and the "known bugs" generally implies that they are old.. (yet still unfixed)

[Rohan]

Any idea when we will get missile hot-keys for bc?

I think that's a silly definition of a bug. You want some things that not everyone else wants, that doesn't mean it's bugged, it just means people do not agree with your idea.

Is it a bug that there are no planets that you can land on?

Missile hotkeys are a touchy subject because they have to be done with abilities. I could do them without having corresponding abilities, but it causes network lag (which I definitely want to avoid). Since the command card is 5x3, I cant put them in a row, so it would look ugly to have abilities for each missile.

so it would look ugly to have abilities for each missile.

don't need a separate ability for each missile.. just shoot them in order with a generic "fire missile" button

Apply the same for small ships please.
Then we figure out proper balancing for Light missiles. (Mostly Scorpion nerfing)

wait, why does the BC need a fire missile button? I only see a need on SS's

and yes, scorpion seems to deal all it's damage to a single target, rather than spreading out and doing a little damage to everything in an area

[Siretu]

You were the one who suggested having a fire missile button for BC? Or rather, Rohan asked about missile hotkeys for BC. I said it's hard to do because you need abilities. You said we only need one ability.
