Bots periodically take no damage from projectile weapons

Dec 22, 2017 Kierky link
CTC bots have CONSISTENTLY taken no damage from swarms on capships, nor on regular ships, flares or any other missile weapon, the server seems to eat them up, and no damage is taken to the bot. They take the weapon concussion, but no damage.

Happened in Sedina L-2 just a few minutes ago, and in B-8 more than once.

Not just this, but as soon as a sector is considered "active" (a player in the sector keeping it awake), the CTC bots just pile up. Can you fix the CTC bots behaviour to properly just "defend" the transport, instead of acting like nation war bots.

Not just bots, players too. Happens more often when shooting at bots though for some reason.
I started noticing this when station bombing in I-8 a couple months ago but never could reproduce it so no idea when it happens.

When you notice your missiles or rockets aren't causing any damage all you can do is warp out and back in to make them work again. As Estrian mentioned above the concussion force is applied to the target, the damage however is not. You also don't see any explosion effect and the projectiles just vanish as the target experiences the concussion force.

And yes, CTC also completely sucks.
