Sometimes ships won´t blow up

Hello,

I´ve come across this 2 or 3 times now in 90 minutes of gameplay:

An enemy ship is basically destroyed, I should win the fight. But then... nothing happens. The ship just sits there with one health bar left. It´s not trying to flee, it´s not stealthed. It should blow up, but it doesn´t and I don´t get any reward for a fight I won. :cry:

I have the steam version.

Any comments?

PS: It´s not because of the pause! I just paused to make a screen

I can make a wild guess.If you press 1 key to target weapon and enemy want to surrender at this very moment you press 1 and accept surrender in given menu. On you screenshot you have enemy ship as neutral, this mean they surrendered. If you press key very fast you cant even see the choice given. Better use autofire feature for fast firing ion weapon or pause before target assigment

Ooooh :lol:
Yes, that is a very good possibility. Next time that happens I will try if I notice a differnce in my scrap count.
But yeah, I guess you´re right!

I think I will just disable the numerical keys for the menus
