So I've been meaning to try this for a while now -- using small fighters to mimic small Groups of defensive satelites.
I built some: cockpit, life support, rocket pods and meson bLasters. No engines, as long as they were launched, they would surround the planet and defend if anything came near.
So what happened when two battle cruiesrs and a battleship arrived at a planet?
First, they launched OK. Then they started moving

. To add another insult, they wouldn't fire

. I mean, this isn't really a batch of bugs, since I'm trying to exploit the game's loopholes, but what gives?
