Hello all,
Today I'm here to tell you of the quirks I've noticed while playing Rebellion. I'm not asking for them to be fixed immediately but they probably should be fixed before the release or at least soon afterward.
#1 seems like a graphical accident, if you look at the rebel titan when its building it's back spike and bottom wings are clipping into and through the titan building structure. This could be fixed by maybe bringing the titan out a little more or by increasing the angle of the wings and giving the back spike a greater curve so it doesn't hit the building structure.
#2 is the advent carriers, if anyone else has made an army of these things before you know they try to fit into the same space as a TEC carrier. Now as you can imagine the TEC carrier is a flat rectangle craft while the Advent carrier is a tall balloon craft. This means whenever you try to jump from one planet to another or even try to move them they are always colliding with each other. Its very annoying and time consuming. This one time on a solo game it took them 15min for them to finally organize to the point of jumping.
By the way this problem has been here since the first game.
#3 is also a pre-jump conflict, if you have enough capital ships and a titan one of the caps will try to reach its jump position inside the titan... From what I've noticed the TEC don't have this problem. My thinking is that the conflict your getting with the titan and caps is linked to the carrier problem. Maybe increasing the size of the box that ships need to fit into before jumping? If that's wrong sorry, I'm thinking that each ship projects a cushion like box into the surrounding space and when an inbound ship box hits that box the inbound ship moves to position itself so that both boxes aren't colliding. 4min drawn example below.

#4 the Halcyons Telekinetic Push ability doesn't seem to work.
These may or may not be easy fixes but I thought I should at least note what I have seen. And if I see anymore I'll make another post.
