Bug Or Feature ? Episode 1

[lanael]

Vipers are sometimes ejected at high speed from the battle (only in warzones ?).

The video below shows me chasing such a Viper.
The viper engine is probably dead. Yet it's moving at about 400 km/s.

Question : Is the viper accelerating due to laser fire or is this a plain and simple bug ?

neither. AI vipers are very prone of getting their drives shot. Without drives they start spinning out of the combat zone =)
