[6.0 beta 5-7] Albatross invincible engine bug

Post by Shabalabalaba » Mon, 13. Mar 23, 01:44

So I've found this very temperamental bug most of the time it won't happen, but I've managed to get it to work twice now and whenever I reload the game from the exact spot I shot it won't work.

I've tried this a number of times now with varying degrees of success, I've even saved while the engine was invincible loaded the save and now it isn't. I have no idea what causes it but I do have video evidence of it happening twice in two different save games "I forgot my mic was on".

Here's the save game from the second clip to see if you can find out what is going on and possibly recreate it:

Alright so I've done a little testing and have found out that it only happens after you have gone through an accelerator so here's a save game all you need to do is fly through the accelerator make a beeline for the Albatros and fire at the engine and it should be unkillable.

Note: I forgot to mention that I also had this happen to me in Windfall IV and I've also tried to do this in Grand exchange but to no avail.

Just tried this with a Jump gate against one of my own Albatros Sentinels and the engines are invincible there as well

Done a little more testing and here are the results:

It seems to only work on the Albatross I tried a Heracles and it seems fine.

The Albatros needs to be deployed at a station (Building).

You need to jump into the sector that the Albatross is currently building the station at and the engines will be bugged.

I've tried this with both the Vanguard and Sentinel variants as well as All round thrusters and travel thrusters both are bugged when building.

Tried shooting an Albatrosses engine, shots passed right through.
Can also fly through.

Video and save attached.
