This is true for the current live version, however it is also useful as an autopilot feature to travel between waypoints :)

AndyP added a comment.Mar 6 2016, 2:38 PM

yes, but for that
staying in gravity or being aligned would be correct.

It should not fight with your controls, then better have it as optional feature that can be turned on and off at some point.

The last update made this worse.

Previously, you could just turn off the AI in the AI tab (ship menu) to deactivate the AI override on the player. Having an AI block or not made no difference.

However, now unless you have a bobby AI block even turning the AI off doesn't deactivate the AI control override. You need to place a Bobby AI block on the ship and turn it off in order to successfully turn off the AI.

-QA Testing-

Taking over a turret makes fleet AI take over the main ship which is good, the rest I checked before still looks good.
