It is possible to order you capship to attack itself, in doing so, the capship will proceed to "Backup" as well as try to "look up" causing it to spiral (In my case) forever downwards. (Cease fire does stop the issue)

[/msg '* <capName>' attack '* <capName>']

Expected: An error message indicating the cap ship cannot, or would not, attack itself.

(Simple fix, just check if the target is the capship itself :) ) (For ideas :) )

suggestion for what it should say: "Did you mean /explode?"

hahaha, +1

This should be fixed in the latest update.
