Ah i hate the AI of the back 2 ships to just present the back instead of the frontal armor >.>
Galaxy in Flames 0.7.5 Update Labor Intensive (0.14.7 Compatible)(Dead Mod))
You could try making it diagonal so you could have the missile launchers all canted forward 45 degrees. The AI could still mess up, but it might work.

Zachary Fixed it boi!
Thank you for reporting the error but could you delete that really long error log you posted? no-one wants to scroll through those.
The_Bloodnaught your ships still did a massive amount of damage to his ships even with the dumb AI! To be honest I think that was the most challenging battle for him since the first few starting worlds.
So how do you peeps feel about the revisions done to the cluster missile launcher?
Northerner Still need to take a proper look, I'll tell you once I checked it out.
Hi!, I would like to submit a starter ship
Zachary thank you!

Northerner Early test of a very low level anti kite thoughts? My thinking is the best way to stop a problem is stopping it before it becomes a problem.
I think the best way may be to not start things. You have kites in the early enemies pool. That encourages the player to respond in kind because kites are the easiest way to deal with kites without sacrificing the ability to fight other things.
They're also frustrating and not fun and encourage abusing the AI because the way to beat them if you encounter them not already having equal range or two ships, is to spawn in a second ship and if the player doesn't have an anti-kite in his library the way to get it into range is for the first ship to start running away and forcing the kite to chase it past the second ship. This encourages breaking the gentlemans' agreement of not deliberately abusing the AI. They should probably be avoided on the NPC list.
As a clarification, the AI will try to use anything with just medium range weapons (cannons, ion beams) as a kite against anything with a mixed armament that includes short range weapons. Just because you think it's supposed to be a brawler (with a name like pugilist I don't think you intended a kite) doesn't mean it doesn't actually operate as a kite under AI control.
Northerner Almost OP-like destructive, but I think it's fine considering the risk-factor, you need to get up close. Ideal for ships to swoop in and out at fast speeds.
