Machinations is a real-time strategy game where you manage and direct swarms of ships to take over and destroy your enemies. Plan your attacks carefully to gain the the most tactically advantageous Nodes (space-stations which build and house your fleet). Upgrade your Nodes with defensive lasers or build shipyards to augment your fleet. Capture super-weapons to cut swathes through your enemies' fleet. Play against up to three AI players in frantic, randomised melees matches. Or complete the Campaign mode to help Admiral Sudo (your robotic commander) reclaim his lost empire.

Probably a very minor cosmetic bug, noted in version 0.0.2 (although theoretically it could possibly affect gameplay) .

Imagine in a game, I order some ships to move to Station X. Hooray for me!
Now, I decide to order some ships to move from Station Y to Station Z.

For a very brief moment after I drag my finger off of Station Y, the crosshair graphic will sometimes briefly target Station X again, before quickly updating to correctly be targeting the location currently under my finger.

It might theoretically be possible that if I lift my finger at the split second in which this happens, I will unintentionally send some more ships to Station X.
