That event will give you additional options with higher engine upgrades, crudely simulating your actual dodge chance.

Sadly, for above reasons, I have no idea where I jumped. It may be relevant, that I was jumping with 3 hull points, and rocket that should take 4 hull points, hit me during jump animation (when small ship is just about to disappear), and my hull stayed at 3 points even after impact. So I'm not sure if it wasn't FTL generic bug, not CE related. Maybe game just told me "you've died" in rude manner
Oh well, not sure if it is CE related, but would still be great to know where that happened.

Responding to merchant in need of mercenary services may result in getting task to deliver 5 drone parts to scientist's station. event text clearly state, that merchant is "paying us some scrap in advance", in addition to giving us those 5 drones. Hoever, no scrap is given. It was reported some times ago by someone else, but I re-report it, as it wasn't fixed, apparently. (Severity: Minor)
I will fix that, but it has nothing to do with CE. I guess I can be glad that the mod reached a point where people start to report vanilla bugs and typos on a regular basis.

I hope it's not more than 10% - it might have been just bad luck, but today, I had it at roughly 2/3 of forced surrenders, which was quite frustrating. Could be just RNG.
Nah, I won't tell you. But it's definitely way lower than that. It's also slightly lower again for stations, as they cant run away. Being a little selective about the surrenders you accept might increase overall gain, but not diminish the frustration. There is only so much I can do to balance this feature, not many screws to turn there.
