Description
[http://sourceforge.net/p/ufoai/bugs/3358 Item 3358] imported from sourceforge.net tracker on 2013-01-28 20:08:16

When a UFO and a Phalanx craft both want to intercept each other, the game hangs once they reach the same spot.

This only happens when the fighter wants to intercept the UFO and the UFO wants to intercept the fighter at the same time, and resolves itself after a few minutes. So I'm guessing the problem is that the lack of a unique intercept solution throw the fighter and UFO into a loop of changing course in response to the other's course changes.

Version: 2.4, April 25th, 2012 release
OS: WinXP(Home), up to date on system updates, as of Aug. 25th 2012.
Hardware: ASUS EeePC 1001HA
Reproduction: Order a Phalanx aircraft to intercept a UFO that attempts to intercept the same fighter. Requires a cooperative UFO, the "fighter" class UFO seems to be most inclined to the relevant behavior.

Here's a savegame demonstrating the bug. The relevant UFO is the fighter heading towards one of the CentCom Stilettos.
