- Doing a bounty, I destroyed all but 1 ship. (a Wolf)
- The Wolf retreated from the battle.
- After the battle I pursued it, and using an emergency burn, was able to engage.
- However as I was slower (flying a solo Enforcer), I was only able to harry its retreat. (even though it had next to no CR)
- After this point I gave up the chase, expecting it to disperse to the planet (as they do ordinarily after being defeated in battle)
- However, it didn't disperse. I've been left with a lone Wolf buzzing around the planet too fast for me to destroy.

I guess the subsequent engagement & harassment interrupted/overwrote the ordinary 'flee to planet' behaviour?

:edit:

Not sure this is a new bug; probably just became more easily encountered due to the new fleet movement mechanics/ai behaviour/emergency burn capability?

Was that Wolf the original flagship? It'd make sense if that was the case; the bounty doesn't end because you didn't actually take out who it's on.

Ahhh, yeah, may have been.
ok, nvm :p

Yeah, that got me too at one point. Also with the "haha you can't force battle anymore" outcome. Ended up reloading an making a point of taking out the flagship first.
