Defect Name: Attacking ships head the wrong way

Build: HCE 2009.004

Repeatable: Yes

Operating System: Vista SP1

DB used: HCDB_080712

Scenario used: Saved game "WrongWay" for EC2003 GIUK

Long Description: Ships ordered to attack initially head the wrong direction.

 

Steps to reproduce:

1) Load and run saved game "WrongWay" in EC2003 GIUK.

2) Order Group ACS to Attack Base ZZb.

3) The ASA announces "Sir, we are out of range. Group ACS must close 13 NM before we are in range. Should we close and attack?". Answer Yes. The ASA reappears with "Sir, request permission to increase speed of Group ACS to 5 kts, to intercept enemy Group ZZb." Answer Yes.

4) Increase to Full Speed of 50kts. ACS heads north, away from the target for quite a distance before turning and attacking.

5) The same thing happens at lower speeds but for not so far a distance.

 

Expected Behavior: Groups should turn to attack without first heading in the wrong direction.
