Flak

[Hidamari]

So, Flak turrets, instead of just complaining about how lame the stats were, I decided to trial them on my battleship. preliminary tests looked promising, however they have a massive drawback that does not affect any other gun nearly as severely.

If you try and fire a Flak turret inside an asteroid field the projectile will explode the instant you fire it, every time.

this is realllly anoying and makes battleships that use this weapon for their anti fighter weapon of choice helpless.

"caps dont belong in asteroid fields anyway"

perhaps not, however since they are everywhere, at some point, you really are going to have to go into a field, they are everywhere inside and outside house space. and its a little silly that this is the only weapon affected by fields so badly, Missiles misfire sometimes in asteroid fields, but never repeatedly every time without fail.

I checked my ping at the time too and I had 69/0/0/0

I understand the problem might be related to the size of the warheads detonation radius, but, exploding -every- time is a little silly, maybe more of the time but not all the time.

How can this (if at all) be fixed?
