Starmade | Select fire missile turrets use center of mass targeting system when firing on entities without SHP
Confirmed task for development, NormalPublic

Description

Tested with Missile + Beam, Select fire turret

Normaly when select fire missile turrets are used against a ship/station they will home in on blocks regardless of where the radar signature/center of mass is, however it appears when these turrets are used against planet plates, they seem to home in on the radar signature/center of mass like they used to in a previous update. I have also been told this affects missiles in general and not just select fire missile turrets but I have not tested this myself.

  2. Spawn a ship with a select fire missile turret docked onto it
  3. Get into the ship with the select fire missile turret and target the planet
  4. Observe the missiles homing on the center of mass regardless of whenever something to hit is actually there or not
Tester information (Internal use only)

Firing order for turrets:

  • systems (Blocks that provide SHP)
  • Center of Mass

Planet plates and most likely asteroids, will cause problems to be properly aimed at, as they have no systems to be targeted.
