Crash when trying to follow a ship in creative by holding enter

Iantech

I would have assumed that the game froze and then would not respond (crash) because I was using too much memory or something, but no, I got this error message right when the ships where leaving my FOV:
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Let me leave this to you. It works after wards, just I don't want this to happen again

I've tried it again. It seems to be a bug where it tries to go to the attack position to attack the debris, but since it was just destroyed, it doesn't have anywhere to go to, so it crashes.

Walt

Thanks, I'll look into fixing this for the next update.

Walt You're welcome.
A bit later, somewhere else
