when in combat mode and using a ramming prow it seems like when contact is made and the ship stops huge amounts of damage is being delt to the building. The particles spew out from the building where the ram is touching and eventually the module on the building will just break. It's like the propellers of the ship are still pushing it forward.
P.S. i don't know if this bug happens without a ramming prow though I assume it would.
no it was a rather small ship only 1000 generic credits or so… though i don't know if you would say that that is a small ship or not, it's not by my standards :)
EDIT: weirdly the bug only happens with that specific ship.
Not a helpful addition to this conversation, for which I apologize, but I too remember seeing continuous damage on occasion when a ramming ship was "rubbing" a structure. I think I assumed that was the intended behavior at the time and didn't think too much of it.
well Zark I would post a screenshot but I am not sure how to… though something i did find out is that the bug only happens with a specific building that I had built.

Hm, I can't immediately repro this, though it's possible it would happen with a sufficiently large ramming ship. Was it a large ship?

Oh, you were born as a Generican as well? :D
Captain
Yes i am a proud Generican! I am currently a resident of Generic City.
Aerial Emperor
Yeah, that's not what I'd consider big. Can you post a screenshot of the design for repro purposes?
