Game not modified
Problem seen in : basic tutorial, Spear of the Patriarch
When having a weapon configuration with missiles, I cannot hit anything.
Example 1: In the tutorial when it asks you to destroy something with a missile, target is locked, I shoot the missile,
the missile flies towards the target ship....and then flies to some random direction.
Note: I have done the tutorial a dozen times and never seen this before 6.20
Example 2: In the spear of patriach start with the asp ship, try to shoot something at turrets say from 1km away
-> No shot hits.
Example 2 problem goes away immediately when the missile launcher is taken away from the weapon configuration.
No save game is needed as the tutorial can be reproduced very easily. Effectively this bug seems to make any missile configurations unusable.
6.20 Cannot shoot at anything when having missiles

Re: 6.20 Cannot shoot at anything when having missiles
I did the tutorial a while back without issues, but I'll give it a try now.
Update1: everything seems to work as expected. I mean, missiles do miss sometimes because missiles suck in this game. Maybe the last time you played the tutorial missiles didn't suck or at least sucked less.
EDIT: Oh I tried the tutorial and skipped to the shooting section -- not the specific game start Patriach whatever... Trying that out real quick...
Update2: Everything seems to work as expected. That game start has you equipped with the shotgun style blasters -- so I wouldn't expect to do much damage to something 1km away, or even to hit much of anything that wasn't very large. They're cool guns, but don't like the sound effect for them... too weak sounding. Like a potato gun. Terrible, really. A shame. I'd mod those sound effects to anything else if I really wanted to use those guns.
I didn't extensively test that start... I fly around and nothing seems to happen to trigger some kind of tutorial or introduction mission, so I got bored and exited because everything seemed fine and I'm not particularly interested in that game start. I did test whether the shotgun spread looked different with the missile launched enabled or not... they looked the same to me.
