Why Wobble?

I have been playing with two new ships. That massive Apocalypse beta (20km) and another one slightly larger than the Orion (4km ish)

Both of them have obscenely powerful weapons. Every time (at least it seems to be then) it wobbles. As in it travels nicely forward then as it fires a beam weapon in wobbles at the front, in the case of the 20 km ship, it wobbles at the front about 2 km up and down, quite quickly which looks stupid. The same also happens in with the other 4 ish km ship. Is it because the weapons on it are too powerful. On both ships they are VERY powerful, or are they travelling too fast? 20 - 25?

I need help!
Thanks

Isn't 20 km a bit big? I mean, turning around must be a pain.

On the other hand, your wingmen could say; "That's no mean, that's an Apocalypse Beta!"

20km isn't big. There are bigger ships now
My big ships don't need to turn, they just blow stuff up

AI problems, probably. If you're talking about what I think you're talking about.

Questions right up Woo's alley.

Woomeister is working on not only two or three uberjuggernauts, but also putting together an ancient fleet. Hit his Inferno Campaign link, and you should be able to find some good stuff...

BTW, Woo, what is your biggest ship at now?

The Gigas is my biggest ship spanning 23.7km. It's in for remodelling so isn't on the new site. The Sechat-Hor isn't finnished yet. Most my ships still need turrets. see my campaign forum for details.

The old Gigas is avaliable here:

I also have shielded FS2 ships on my site including the Sathanas. As well as some other stuff that will be up in a few days such as:

SI Arachnas Subspace folding device.
GTTC Warrior (shielded version)
GTI Hades
GTD Independence
GTVA Goliath

What and where do you download this even bigger ship from?

Also are there any more Ancient ships out there other than the AF Kato, AB Zakros and ACv Phaistos?
