Another fighter bug?
I'm in a big battle with the Cue Cappa's (with the improved AI from the forums) and my 10 or so dreadnaughts (with no point defence) and my 2 all point defense cruisers vrs about 15 battlecruisers and a few dreads, and to my surprise about 10 cloaked carriers, (opps). Ok so I figure I'm in deep doodoo, all the carriers are loaded with fighters. Well to my surprise the carriers all run to the corners of the map and when its over I have 10 carriers sitting in the corners, 1 point defense ship left and all but one dreadnaught (damn computer virus). My dreads just fly up to them and blow them away without so much as a peep.
The other time I ran into his carriers with a subverted ship they did launch fighters (no point defense).
The only difference I can get here is the point defense made them not launch. While my point defense would have nailed him there was no way it would stop all of them, and my dreadnaughts can't hit a fighter (esp with the bug) if their lives depended on it (which it would have).
Is this a bug in the mod race AI or the AI in general (this is my first game long enough to run into the big fleet stage)
