Possible bug in match speed/copy
« on: February 05, 2010, 06:11:10 PM »
v4.91
Bug:
immobile taskgroup moving at speed of parent fleet.

Situation:
I have split off a ship from my main corvette group because it lost it's engine, and because I am lazy and used the split group command it still has the same superior task group as it's parentgroup.
This has been no problem until I decided to invade my neighbour and used the match speed command to have my corvettes not waste fuel.
The immobilized shipis now matching the speed of the fleet, but without an engine and a (supposed) max speed of 1km/s.

This is probably an oversight in the copy orders to subordinate fleets method.

Fixed for v5.0
