[0.9] biters seem to get 'stuck' in open ground

[jeroon]

I moved towards a biter base, got too close and the biters come running at me. Half of them suddenly freezes in place, not moving until the next wave of biters come running from the base, and then they all start moving again towards me.

At the end of every green line (debug, show_next_waypoint) is a small biter, not moving:

Later it seems to no longer happen, will keep testing

All these biters are stationairy, they just stopped moving, and get killed by the lasers:


The bigger picture


(for some strange reason this save is 16 MB, while the same game, saved an hour later, is the "usual" 6 MB

I can confirm this bug, but it seems very rare. Didn't make a save when it happend, but it was only once in a 30+ hour game. Big Group of Biters, standing in the middle of nowhere, not moving, not attacking. No outpost close to them, next biters nest was also a few sectors away.

This has happened to me to. Huge (100's+) biters just standing still. I can walk right past them. Caused my game to slow right down until i destroyed them all. Took 400+ rockets!!

This was the second time in this game that it happened so I took a gamesave.

Thanks for the save, we will try to find some time to look at this for the 0.10.x.
