Default Re: Is this a bug?

Geoschmo, I was running my simulations in tactical mode by putting my ships on auto, so I got to see what ever damage the ships sustained. I've tried your suggestion and and I was right... the ships were really capturing MC-controlled enemies with their subverters. In fact I couldn't make them capture ships with boarding parties, they keep destroying their targets or running away to a corner.

The AI is more amazing then I thought. When I put my ships on test with subverters and their normal weapons alone (ie. no boarding parties) it was so skillful that my ships destroyed every component on every enemy ship *except* for their armour plates! Then they would convert the enemies with their subverters. It makes sense if you are trying to *board* the enemy ships, but with subverters...?
