Host gets shot at when a client attacks a planetary base using the Mecha Turret - Laser

[TheAshenWolf]

Game version: 0.10.32.25783
Nebula version: 0.9.17.0
Modpack code: 0196f3d5-0dd5-7d1a-bee8-005077c87f48

Whenever Danquo (Client) uses a Mecha turret laser (the default mecha gun), Ashen (Host) gets shot at and eventually killed regardless of the distance between them. No errors are thrown. It does not matter whether the attack using this weapon is automatic or manual. Attacking using other weapons or drones does not trigger this issue.

As you can see on the starmap screenshot, manual collection button is present - Ashen is currently on a gas giant in the Beta Aquarii system, getting killed by units from the Alpha Draconis system.

Please, let me know if you need any other information.

This issue is similar to #676, however, as you can see, my shields are full and all of the damage goes straight into the health pool.

I've been experiencing this as well as a host, just so it's known to not be isolated to TheAshenWolf.

I can't reproduce your issue. Here is the test file I tried, using your modpack.
battle-2-farm3.1.dsv.zip

Here are the steps I tried:

1. Create a new local client and join the game
2. Client goes to dark fog ground base on the same planet, get counter attacked and killed. Host does not get attacked.
3. Client goes to dark fog ground base, hit them with meach laser. Host does not get attacked.

Would be helpful If you can produce the issue using this save, or provide a more detailed steps to reproduce the issue.

When it's happened with my group, it's been while on different solar systems. We're 12+ lightyears apart.

Sorry that I couldn't send more info earlier, my partner is not exactly the type that responds to texts.

Reporting from your save file:

First of all we tried attacking the enemies going towards the signal tower; this produced no result.
After the removal of said signal tower and losing aggro, the enemies went to attack the client, however, after the base was attacked, Plasma sentries started shooting both the client and the host.

Here is a clip of that: https://youtu.be/E6s0D4-w56w

As previously reported, Client is in a different system, attacks a base. Several of the turrets (notably the Plasma Sentries) start shooting towards the host. Now, unlike on my own save file, host did not get damaged (possibly sandbox stuff? I did disable the infinite energy later on to check if that makes a difference and it didn't). It seems that setting the Dark Fog to Passive may have an effect here, as the shots did not seem to be flying off to space before then.

Host's POV:

15 minutes later:
The host not receiving damage seems to have been caused by the low level of the Dark Fog. In my original save file, the Dark Fog is at level 30.
After we levelled a base to level 3, we were able to replicate the host getting damaged by Client's enemy from roughly 3 light years away.
Here is a clip: Host starts getting damaged at around 30 second mark https://youtu.be/gxSjam4T8sY.

Hope this helps!
