[1.3.3.6] Shakturi ship shows up in build screen for abandoned ships

I had reported this before and was it was not supposed to show up here anymore.
It shows up still and is still unbuildable, soo.. it probably shouldnt show up here.

[1.3.3.6] Radiation damage on game pause and zoom in - in nebula

So basically there is an Automated Defense in a radiation nebula.
Pause the game. Zoom In.
The station begins to take damage until eventually exploding.
If you zoom out it stops taking damage.
If you unpause, it begins to repair itself.

This seems wrong.

[1.3.3.6] Galaxy map borders broken to infinity

As you can see, the border at the edge of the galaxy just stretches out to infinity.
This is not resolved on reload.

This also gets worse and something else is colonized close to the edge of the map, and more infinite borders are created.

[1.3.3.6] Cant repair, retire, or scuttle my own ship

When you load this save, zoom out just a tad at first for the ship to render (23'rd Invasion Fleet, Dagger of Girax Major)

So One of my troop transports got into a pickle. It's warp drive is down, and it is between two stars.
It's Torrent Drive shows as 0%, Unbuilt. Damage control is not repairing ...

[1.3.3.6] Cant destroy Shakturi Beacons after the first one.

Obviously bad. Im assuming this is unintended.

So after I captured the first one, i got the research options to investigate and then destroy them
I completed that research. The first one was destroyed.
Then i found a second one. Captured it. The wormhole closed, but the beacon was not destroyed ...

So I have a 5k fleet that really badly want to attack a location with 32k strength and does non stop recommendations to try it.

Anyway, you can also take one of my Strike fleets ...

Re: [1.2.7.7] Empire borders dont get updated on independent colony breakaway and get stuck

You can use the attached save to reproduce the issue. Just make sure to watch from the galaxy view, and then when the revolt happens on the 25'th day, you will see the border not get cleaned up.

[1.2.7.7] Spaceports vanish when their worlds become independent. They just blink out of existence.

I see no reason why an independent colony cant have a spaceport. Additionally, if it cant for some reason, then the spaceport should be scuttled, instead of just vanishing.

Attached is a save that demonstrates this behavior. You start on day 21 looking at the spaceport. Play 4 - 5 days and the ...

[1.2.7.7] Empire borders dont get updated on independent colony breakaway and get stuck

See below image for a stuck border.

Basically, I (blue) had a border with (cyan) from Kurrubah down to Kuan, when cyan had a colony at Kuristar.

However, *before* I invaded Kuristar, they broke away from their cyan empire and become independent. This resulted in a border change, and their cyan ...

[1.2.7.7] Xenox Defense Bases and Small Space Port(s) have incorrect weapon facing.

As seen in the image for Xenox Space Bastion, weapon #6 seems to face the the opposite direction that it should.
This affects the following bases.

Space Bastion
Space Bastion v2
Small Space Port
Small Space Port v2
Small Space Port v3

[1.2.7.7] Troop Transports assigned to capture dont move towards their objective to capture it.

They will just sit there and wait.

They do this until the target's shields go down, and *then* they move towards it. This typically results in the other ships in the fleet slowly finishing the target off as it gains/loses shields/weapons, and the fleet will fail the capture objective.

This is extremely frustrating and drastically increases build times. This typically happens when a constructor arrives at a build site to find a station already there.

This has been an issue in Distant Worlds 2 as far as I can remember. See below image.

Currently they just show up as these dot like things halfway between themselves and the target, and very slowly ...

Re: [1.1.8.1] Proton Engine v3 and same fighter version uses 0 Crew

Just to be sure, I validated the game files through Steam. 2 files failed validation and were reacquired.

On 1.2.0.5, i started a new game, checked the tech tree, and it still had 0 crew requirement. So maybe it was only fixed on later versions.

Re: [1.1.8.1] Proton Engine v3 and same fighter version uses 0 Crew

NOT FIXED

As of 1.2.0.5 Proton Engine V3 still uses 0 crew. See screenshot. This *could* be an intentional thing though.. It's not crazy for a V3 thing to get an interesting benefit like being fully automated and using 0 crew but need to know from devs.
