Well I dunno, I have a ship that is literally weighing 7040 tons, and it has a very good enough stopping power for such a heavy ship so that the stopping window is quite small actually

This would all come down to the priority between reaching the point precisely and reaching somewhere near as fast as it can. Which sounds like a part of the upcoming AI behaviour customization.

This, but also for rotation. Don't slow down turning when approaching the desired angle! AI Ships with fixed weapons can't aim at enemies thanks to this.

#

Railguns, Ions, etc. basically straight up can't hit a moving enemy because their rotation will never catch up to it.

My only worry with this is that ships will be unable to avoid collisions, which the AI already has problems with.

maybe make it a button/hotkey in the movement menu that you can toggle and untoggle?
