Summary0014808: AI ships sometimes barely move
DescriptionSince 1.06 AI ships in some battles, both enemy and friendly (operations excepted) , in some battles just sit either completely still, or slowly drifting in the general direction of the enemy.
In the attached save, I'm consistently experiencing this issue when helping defend Sarosh against the Boarine armadas. If I attack a random armada flying somewhere though, the ships move as they should.

Since the ships refuse to move at more than a snail's pace it is extremely simple to just stay at the edge of their range and avoid every shot.
Some of the enemy ships don't even start within range of anything, and thus never engage unless you fly over to them.

I'm sorry, but I'm unable to reproduce the "completely still' behavior in the attached save. Here's what I tried:

1) Load the save.
2) Friendly Actions.
3) Help Defend Against Invaders.
4) Fly around with shields on high power, with Hold Fire.
5) Watch all the ships I can see.

None of the deployed squadrons actually sat still.

Can you try again, and if you see ships sitting still, can you then make a save then (so I'm not relying on it reproducing from a freshly-created combat) and post it here and tell me which ships you don't see moving? Thanks :)

I've attached a save from the battle itself now.
Note how the Boarine Tusker ships are sitting completely still, while the usually very fast Velociters are moving very slowly.
