Found a Bug in TA

I was playing as the Altarians. My mining ship had just finished building up the last asteroid, and auto was disabled for it. I upgraded it to a constructor, while it was still in the field, and it got stuck- wouldn't move anywhere. Saving and reloading, and even rebooting had no effect. It was there for good. This is reproducible; I started a new game to make sure.

This isn't a gamestopper, but it is annoying to lose a ship that way.

Yep, I've seen this happen to Colony Ships that I inadvertently sent to asteroid fields during the Colony Rush phase.

Also your flagship can get stuck in an asteroid field. Actually, I think the captain just likes to sit in his chair and look at the "pretty rocks"...

Turn cheats on and teleport it away.

I thought that this had been fixed sometime back. I haven't seen this behavior of late, but I will be on the lookout.

I hadn't thought of that. I'll remember in case this ever happens again.
