Title: Opposing Fleets - Friendly Engagement?
Post by: CrashToDesktop on April 20, 2017, 06:28:57 PM
So, something funny happened on this test run.  I started a new game, spawned in (skipped the tutorial) and immediately went to Barad to watch the fireworks and vulture around for the inevitable debris fields and ships floating about.  Of course that happened, did a couple of salvage runs while the battle was going on, picked up 4 frigates, and then headed off to the secret pirate lair.  Flicked off my transponder just before I entered, then sold my loot, and after I exited flipped my Transponder back on.  Then, all of a sudden the Hegemony fleets that I'd picked up loot from start chasing me endlessly.  They'll engage me, but I'm never forced into a battle - I can just Leave or open a Comm Link with no bad result.  However, the engagement text pops back up after I Leave, and I have to spam Escape for a little before it kicks me back out to the campaign screen.  But the Hegemony fleets keep on pursuing me.  Save file provided.

Alright, fixed that up - was a mismatch between them wanting to do a cargo scan (and thus pursuing) but then not actually wanting to ask about it.

Alright, nice, I can get that save back hopefully when the hotfix hits. :)

Yeah, given that the save is in the "already bad" situation, I think they'll bug you twice and on the second one it'll ask for the scan and then stop. So, should be ok.
