This bug seems to be reserved for the Dragon Fighters only. It seems the scientists forgot to tell me they installed a fraking Alien mind control module on the damned thing when I wasn't looking! When an Alien Craft approaches the Dragon, you gain control of the alien craft via opposite movement as demonstrated in this video.

Steps to reproduce:
1-get a Dragon interceptor
2-Have a Alien craft fly torwards the Dragon
3-Viola, you now control the Alien craft

Grug:
When an alien craft is flying towards you, it will continue to track your movements... that's kinda the point. It is trying to catch you and shoot you down.

As far as I know, this only happens when the alien craft is slower than your dragon and you are flying away from it, so it tries to catch you by going the opposite way around the globe. Other than that, I would say it is normal behaviour?

DattMuffinMan:
Well, its an exploit then not a bug if it is an intended feature. Still something that needs to be attended to.

Grug:
How is it an exploit?... or did I miss something in your video?

DattMuffinMan:
I was able to fly the UFO into my AA net, if I had more fuel I would've killed it without having to intercept. I was able to influence the UFO's pathing to my advantage, that's exploiting.
