Problem Type: [AI] Ships

from Sins Forums
Tester: Chip
Version v0.61.009
Problem Description: The ships have a tendency to "bump" into each other and "push" each other around. This is especially noticeable when new ships are congregating at the rally point. The AI needs adjustment. Even though the game is in space the ships seem to be treating each other on a 2D field.

That is probably the only minor problem I have, this is only a 2D terrain in a 3D world. Where is the depth, there are lesser games with more depth to their world than this, I wanna move on my Z-axis PlZ

You can move on the z-axis by holding down the ~ key and clicking where you want with the mouse; the third axis is not locked, I tested this myself.

Re: the AI, the AI rarely uses the third axis altho it does sometimes. It does in fact play as if it were a 2d field. I dunno how to fix that. Most of the times Ive seen it use the 3rd axis is when the fleets are huge and there is nowehre else to put the ships to follow their orders.
