Question about TIE lasers / blasters
... are they going to move like in the movies?  TIE locks onto target, starts firing, and the lasers track towards target.  I can put screenies up if you want.

I thought the target tracking was due special effects limitations...the ships in ANH could not be made as maneuverable as lucas originally intended. so he 'cheated' the maneuvering by that wierd target tracking... i read that somewhere in my nerdy past ^^

you get less target tracking in ROTJ, and none in the new trilogy and TESB (remember the TIEs missing the falcon most of the time?)

If this is so, that would solve the problem.

We will do in the classical X-wing series way. You shoot straight.
