One last issue I noticed before I leave the game be for a bit - oftentimes I notice a division of vessels at the start of a battle is overlaid, physically with others in their positioning. While mechanically this causes no actual issue like ramming (thankfully), it can create some oddly jumbled confusion to what would otherwise be a more ordered overall formation.
This can be bad if you start close to the enemy and don't have much time to assemble. Basically - ships should not be able to spawn on top of each other for obvious reasons, even if it doesn't cause any damage or whatever.

Graphical representation of ships in battle is intentionally larger that it should be according to the size. So even if you see ship is on top of each other it does not mean that they same position (ramming).
The reasons for that are just practical, so that player can see ships in some reasonable size.

I am aware, but I assume that they are still not supposed to spawn into the scenario on top of each other. It isn't a widespread issue, but there always seems to be a division overlaid on another during a large fleet action. It seems like the battle generator is erroneously assuming nothing is there, but in reality it has already placed a division there. |

The next time it occurs, I will exit in battle and give you the save. I'm sure it is overwritten right now |

I've seen this bug plenty of times before, and they really do spawn exactly on top of each other. It happens when several divisions all spawn with the same role and lead division. I can consistently reproduce it using fleet exercises (see attachment). Attachments:Game3.zip (807.31 KB)

Happened to me too. Will post a save if it also helps.
