Orbiting doesn't work when jamming NPC presents 2 Weeks, 2 Days ago Karma: 0
The current logic of hunt bot will only do the maneuver (orbiting) after it successfully locks the target enemy. However, with the jamming NPC presents, the hunt bot can never successfully lock the target thus it will get stuck in this loop of "locking-fail-locking-...". For drone ship this is not a problem because the drones will kill the jamming NPC eventually. Yet the problem is our ship will sit there still during this process and for speed tank ships like Gila it is very dangerous. Please see the log snippet below

Is this speed tank algorithm?

If maneuvering mode is "orbit attacking NPC", bot will orbit NPC to get closer in targeting range. It does not need to lock target before orbit is started, but if NPC is in targeting range it does not start to orbit at all. Speed tank should use orbit structure instead.

To make speed tank to use NPC orbiting need to keep track what NPC was orbited and when to restart orbiting as bot will stop as soon as NPC is killed

I had the same problem.
There are no structures to orbit so ship is just stationary in space

If you use speed tank you need or structure or asteroid to orbit in anomaly. If some structures/asteroid present but not shown in overview it is possible to add them. Any anomaly should have some objects besides NPC.
