Why dosent my PD Ship fire at incoming missiles? My Laser Ship shoots at them...
The missiles have a speed of 33.0000 km.
What causes 1 second interrupts? I remember Steve mentioning the possibility but not the reasoning.
In my campaign I had set up auto time advance as there was obviously a battle going on someplace in the universe as I was getting serial five second advances. The auto time advance went on for a while, then there were three 1-second advances, followed by an eight second advance, two more one second advances, and then Aurora apparently locked up. Task Manager says Aurora is doing something in the background, so its chugging away on something. This has happened before and sometimes if I let it go it'll clear up on its own and begin advancing time again. Other times it hasn't and I have to shut it down and start again from the last save.
Just curious about the one second advances.
That's unintended. I have never had a 1 second increment and the game isn't supposed to generate them. I need to work out what happened there.

If so, I can probably work out the general case formula from there.
(Not, like, over a lunch break. But eventually.)
I'd like to be able to project the position of a system body (at an arbitrary point in the future), given its orbital parameters and current location.
Would that be a straightforward formula you could share?
...It's a few hundred lines of code...
I suspected that might be the case.
Am I correct in recalling that orbiting bodies sweep their orbital area at a constant rate over time?
And if that is correct, is that how Aurora implements it?

What happens to ground units transported on board a ship if the ship gets hit and the troop transport component gets damaged?
Assuming there is no spare space for them of course and i have the exact amount of tons of GU's as transport capability.
I've noticed that my officers are retiring at age 32-33. Should there be a kind of military administrative structure to provide them with jobs as they age? A fleet staff structure or a general staff for ground commanders? If the answer is "yes," how would I create such a structure?
I don't have any warships, and the only ground unit I have is the "1st Infantry Regiment." I don't have any alien invasions or NPRs enabled in this game. It's my 7th restart.
