Starmade | firing a missile on a target close to home base drops a warning
Confirmed task for development, TrivialPublic

Description

#1
It seems that missiles have a larger check radius than their damage radius. If something is 200m away from a homebase, you can shoot it with the smallest radius and not get that error message. Fire something with a 40 radius at it and it will trigger the message/warning that you you can't damage a homebase. The station itself doesn't get physically hit though.

This can have some nasty consequences for auto war declaration.

#2
just to make sure
1- the message box still appears for whom ever shoot the missile
2- the faction affected doesnt get a news post about that


3- yellow box shows the outline of this base dimensions
4- red box is a target entity placed within those dimensions
5- the two holes in it are from missile hits that did drop the warning for the firing ship. there is plenty of space to the station structure itself
6- the firing ship is outside the boxed dimension of the station

  • we think the warning (and any effect of that) should only drop when the missile effect would have dealed damage to the station

will now not notify the faction if tehre is no nonempty segment within the radius (it might still display a message (homebase) though)
