Both. FASA did indeed make a Star Trek RPG, and it did indeed have some pretty crazy space combat rules, but you are probably thinking of Star Fleet Battles, a weirdly-unpursued unauthorized game based on Star Trek fanon as of just before The Motionless Picture. (Wrapping back around on itself, the gameplay in the Starfleet Command games, which were properly licensed, is, I am told, Eerily Similar to some parts of the Star Fleet Battles experience. :)
