i had a platform idle at aquilo over quite some time, then i noticed that some of the asteroids just idle at the range of the turrets, all these fragments that form like 2 lines around the platform are results of the destuction from bigger ones, looks like some parts dont move at all or barely after they are generated by destruction

currently there is a "line" with small and medium asteroids

id expect that the fragments either move away or to the platform to get cut down further not idle at range

you said "idle for some time" … can you specify? hours? days?
Considering that the newly created smaller asteroids/chunks appearing from destroying bigger ones have randomized velocities it is expected that some of them have (almost) no velocity. And then they don't manage to get into the range of those turrets that are aiming for them (or asteroid collectors for chunks). This will necessarily lead to an accumulation of small asteroids and chunks just outside the range of turrets over very long periods of time.

Hello, please include a version number when reporting issues. I'm going to assume you use the latest stable version (2.0.15) and this is therefore a duplicate of 120297.
