Not able to retreat due to fighters
« on: April 21, 2020, 03:50:03 AM »

Hey so i went into a battle where i knew i was not going to win but, went in and did some damage and then fell back.

i have 2 tempests that when retreating the Terminator drones will just sit at the bottom of the map and not retreat with the ship. Now i am stuck in a perptual retreat mode even holding down the 2x speed button(hopefully to get the retreat prompt) and clicking the full retreat button i am still unable to retreat.

Thanks.

Just to confirm, this is completely unmodded (aside from console commands and the required mods), right?

(This should be resolved in the next release, btw; deployed fighters won't count for preventing the player's retreat.)

Hello,

first, i wanna say this game is a true gem, thank you for the many many hours of joy it brought to me since i bought it last year !

Yesterday i encountered the same bug :

The Battle was against a Bladebreaker Station from the Nexerelin Mod, i retreated early, and
my fleet retreated successfully, but several fighters were stuck on the bottom of the map, and the battle wont end.

I play on Ironmode, and was into a 5-6 hour session of my current save, but that is ok, i just started a new run.

This is a List of the Mods :

Dassault-Mikoyan Engineering
DIABLEAVIONICS
DiableAvionics_royalblue
Machina Void Shipyards
GraphicsLib
Industrial.Evolution3.2.c
Interstellar Imperium
Kadur Remnant
LazyLib
Magellan Protectorate
MagicLib
Nexerelin
Roider Union
scalartech-solutions-0.8.5
United Aurora Federation
Volkov Industrial Conglomerate
Grand Colonies
Arma Amatura

I Try to remember the Fleet composition, maybe this is relevant.
My Fleet Consisted of 2 UAF Battleships, 2 Volkov Cruisers 1 Destroyer, 1 Dassault Mikoyan Medium Carrier, 1 UAF Medium Carrier, 3 UAF Medium Carrier, 1 Dassault Zelenograd Capital Class, 1 MVS Dragonhunter Capital, several UAF Frigates. 1 Drover
About 15 Fighter Wings. All UAF except for Drover and Zelenograd.

The Attached Image shows the Battlescreen, didnt end even after 1 hour.. 3 of the wings drifted superslowly upwards. The Wing on the very bottom right stayed there all the time.

Edit:
According to the Bottom Left i am in a Command Shuttle, is this always the Case after Retreating ? Or maybe i accidentally triggered Transfer Command while or Before retreating, but the Shuttle glitched out ?
