Railgun shells ignoring random blocks in their path (phasing shells)

Silent1 shared this bug 5 months ago
Reported

when u fire to heavily protected ships the railgun rounds randomly ignore blocks in their path and hit blocks behind them.

how to replicate

i attached a test target blue print use a ship with at least 8 railguns stacked closely together

fire at the flat surface on top of the test target from 300 - 500 meter after 4- 5 tries u see the phasing of the shells ignoring blocks in their path

here what it looks like

Hello Silent1,


Thank you for contacting us. Unfortunately, I was not able to reproduce it and I was getting a different result from what you are describing. I am attaching a screenshot from my testing where the projectiles damage blocks in clean line and are not ignoring other blocks.


Can you please share your save file with me with your setup so I can test this behavior there?


  • You can access your save files by typing %appdata% into your Windows search bar and you will be redirected to the hidden Roaming folder. After that just follow: \Roaming\SpaceEngineers\Saves. There should be a folder with your SteamID and your saves.
  • Please zip the file and attach it here. If you are having difficulty attaching files you can optionally use Google Drive. When sharing a google drive link please make sure it is set to be downloadable by anyone with the link.

Thank you in advance.

Hi it happens in pure vanilla too but 3 important thing i discovered it never happens to station target so it needs to be; a ship state. Second it most likely to happen in close range than long range and . And third it won't happen all time u need to do test like at least 4 times to get the phasing as i said its random. I will make a save file as you requested later when i get home.
