Summary	0003059: Astro-Trains and Translocators = problem
Description	If you stick a military mk3 command station on a planet within range of a couple wormholes, with astro trains turned on, the astro turret trains all get stuck on that one planet because they're not immune to translocation. This is problematic because all your FRD forces on that planet will then spend ages chasing the trains around, and will often ignore actually dangerous AI forces on the planet to continue chasing the trains.

Chris_McElligottPark Mar 17, 2011 12:50 pm administrator ~0011126	Good thought! * Astro Trains are now immune to translocation and gravity effects, since both of those cause more problems for players than they would ever solve.

ArcDM Mar 17, 2011 1:35 pm reporter ~0011129	In 3.x I found it fun and exploitive to use experimental translocators to permanently stall astro trains on one planet.
