Coronata Titan Movement Issue

Non-Rotation For A Period Of Time (Possible Bug)

In a recent game I was using the "Coronata Titan" to bomb a planet, while it was carrying out this order I subsequently used the "Unity Mass" ability on an orbital structure to the right of the ship. The titan then moved towards the orbital structure (side ways movement) without rotating to face the orbital structure for about 4 - 5 seconds, not sure if this is a bug but just looks a bit weird as its normal movement pattern is to almost immediately rotate towards the target.

At the time it was practically resting on the planet and was firing away, additionally there were no ships is obstructions between the titan and orbital structure.

I've noticed this sometimes when a large ships wants to move a small horizontal distance. It seems to be an emergency measure to ensure a ship can always get unstuck, but yeah it seems it can get triggered incorrectly sometimes.

I notice this mostly with the Loyalist TEC Titan as it slides closer to a target.

who doesn't like drifting ships? plus it kinda makes sense in a vaccume, easier to go sidways then turn around

Drifting ships is fine if the Titan moved that way normally ;). Anyway could be a bit frustrating if your trying to get your Titan to rotate so as to allow its weapons banks to hit its target.

To be honest ,I would say the Coronata Titan is just one massive :dur: issue...
