[4.10] What are the plasma cannons waiting for ?
Hi,
Save at https://gofile.io/d/5ilQqh
I am in a Raptor, Plasma cannons are at "attack my enemy target", the Xenon K is 7km away from me, nothing between, but the turrets don't start shooting for whatever reason.
Started already my S-fighters for some distraction....but the K gets nearer and nearer....and the plasmas are nearly later then the flak cannons....
Any good ideas ?
Best regards

There is logic in place that they will not fire if they cannot hit their target. They might have been trying to aim at one of the K's turrets which is quite small, so the turret could not land a hit on it reliably enough to fire.

Hi,
In case a K is targeted and half screenfilling in front of me, the L plasma should fire what they can (and are normally doing so)
Anyway it looks like the plasma cannons are acting as they are still damaged.
I rechecked the save - all weapons look fine, they have been damaged from the last attack of a defense station, i let the Raptor repair everything at an accompanying supply ship and everything looked fully ok.
So right now i don't have a logical explanation for this behaviour...
Best regards

It a that "will be fixed" in the next patch.
Just wait.. some weeks...

Yes...
Full stop. On that fire order Plasmas usualy only disobey if you are still moving around. Even 5m/s... Those things are A very slow traversing and B the turret script for big guns hates movement on its own platform!
But usually the Raptor guns are less bitchy than others... Like the Asgards L turrets in anti capital mode, who sometimes only shoot when fired upon... ... daring basterd...
Ever seen a K or I firing the big ones on the move? Some might believe its Xenon diplomacy... I move, i am friend. I stop, you die... But thats a myth, they just run the same software...

This is fixed in the upcoming 4.20 patch. Turrets will be much more capable of hitting moving or distant targets.
