Ships Can Intersect

[Shrooblord]

Yeah, so this happened.

 

I was piloting one ship, had a band of other ships escorting it, and went through a Gate. One of the ships came through, I hopped into my Mining Drone and went back through the other end of the Gate. I waited for the whole fleet to jump through the Gate, then went back through to where the ship was they were escorting. When I returned, I saw this. The first ship to come through the Gate had taken the duty of Escort Me a little too liberally and went straight through the ship it was Escorting.

 

When I gave both of them an Order to Escort Me while I was piloting another ship, they instantly snapped out of this position and moved to the closest possible position they could (0 m) without intersecting. I had to manually pilot one of them away from the other before the second could path towards the ship it was trying to Escort, but that's a different bug, I know.

 

So mostly, not a gameplay-breaking bug. But it's a little silly to look at.
