How can I get my ships to fire torpedoes? - Fix in a future build.
How do I get my AI controlled ships to fire torpedoes?
I kitted out four Perseus fighters with two torpedo launchers each and a full bay of torpedoes and ordered them to attack an Atlas (in system). They fly at and around the target but do not fire their torpedoes. I set the torps to be the active ammunition and everything. Am I missing something? When I teleport into the fighters and take control I can fire the torpedoes myself, no problem.
(I put this in tech support because it seems like a bug to me. I'm on 3.20, unmodded.)

Thanks for the reply. Here's a save: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ye4N0l ... sp=sharing
There are four Perseus (Torpedo Bomber) ships at the north end of the sector. When I select them and tell them to attack the HOP Odysseus Sentinel (that's pulled ahead of the rest), they fly up to it but don't fire.

Did you go into the ship info/load out and actually load torps into the launchers?
Re: How can I get my ships to fire torpedoes?
Yes, and I also put the launchers in both primary and secondary weapon groups.
Re: How can I get my ships to fire torpedoes?
Fix on the way! Thanks much for the save and the report. Fix should be in a future update.

hi, while you are at it maybe you will be able to improve the logic a bit for missile equip?
basically AI ship will not set as active ammunition for launcher any missile that is not set as default missile in the launcher macro, so its very tedious to set them up manually if you buy many ships at ones.
Code: Select all
