seems a little strange to me to see this weirdness - I want my tengu back!

When did it start flying backwards?

The model itself, because it's modular, is cached to disk in regards to how it is put together. We had a case where when we switched from a left to right-handed coordinate system, the cached coordinates would stay the same, resulting in a Tengu flying backwards. That could be what you're experiencing, if you still have a Tengu model cached like that.

If you wish to fly forward, I'd suggest you try clearing your cache. That should do the trick.

Just a random dude in Team Security.

thanks I now have my tengu back, instead of a strange backwardly (un)compatible imposter!

Sometimes the ships go rogue and have to be memory wiped.

Your Tengu was experimenting with other Tengus. Sounds like it was a phase and your Tengu is attracted to other cruisers too. In any case, you should love your Tengu for who it is.

This is nothing compared to my thanatos warping backwards.

Into a gatecamp.

(I had this same problem with my proteus. It actually made it look better, but I cleared cache anyway because shooting blasters out of the back of it seemed wrong somehow.)

I see nothing wrong with superheated plasma being flung out your rear. It's what happens after a night of tacos and whiskey anyway.
