Summary0026437: Orbitals Improperly Updating To Stick To Center of Grav Well
DescriptionWhen you have multiple catapults orbiting your planet and then reload the save, it will keep one in the proper position, but the other(s) will spawn on top of the first one and then proceed to move toward the center of the planet and stay there.

Attached is a save, where I have two catapults orbiting my homeworld, both at opposing edges of the gravwell. When loading the save, one will be in the proper spot, and the other will warp to that one before pathing to the center position.

Changing the name, as this is definitely not just catapults, but all orbital units and structures. Orbiting Wards entering a system will spawn at the center of the planet. Orbiting structures displaced by the Chromatic Horror will end up moving to the center of the planet and stay there, too.

Bit of a bump, as I've learned this is a similar problem for any and all orbitals. Orbiting wards will spawn in the planet center whenever going through a wormhole, for instance.

Oh this is the same thing causing that?? I am very interested in fixing the situation Mac describes but assumed it would be very hard to track down. Any tips for me on this/that? If so i'd happily reassign to myself.

Another bump: Chromatic Horror's displacement will cause the orbital to path to the center and be stuck there unable to move.
