The latest instace was a light cuiser with PD, Cargo (with troops loaded) and boarding parties.

If a ship has a cargo bay, it probably falls into the Category of "Transport". Make sure transports have orders to stick with the fleet.

Is it really just me or is this normal?

Could someone please please test out the above?? And tell me if your ship obeyed the fleet orders or ignores them like I've been experiencing. It seems like I'm the only one who has had this happen!! |

I have tested it and can confirm it. I have sent a bug report to Aaron.

Re: Why don\'t ships obey their $@#$@# fleet orders
Well I just spent 15 minutes on the phone to a friend who called me up asking 'why don't my ships obey their fleet orders?' Is there really only 3 of us that have noticed this?? It just seem like such a huge bug I'm surprised no one else has experienced this. I'm still hoping someone can tell me I've got a setting wrong or something. Has anyone for example managed to have a fleet obey 'don't hurt me orders' in ver 1.67?

Re: Why don\'t ships obey their $@#$@# fleet orders
David, I can't say I've "noticed" this particular bug, but I have noticed many others from the strategy screen, most involving either the "ram" or "don't get hurt" orders. I think we are fighting some hard code here and our desires on the strategy screen just aren't enough to break through that code.

Re: Why don\'t ships obey their $@#$@# fleet orders
Quite a few of the default settings in the Strategies are really bad choices. Changing them is one of the first things I do every game.
