I was fighting a Mantis ship and managed to cause a couple of hull breaches in their weapons room. They tried to repair it until all of their crew were too badly injured, at which point they retreated to man the cockpit, engines, and shields (they didn't have a medbay). Since the weapons were still destroyed and they had no drone system / teleporter, they had absolutely no options for defeating me. But they didn't try to run away either.
I grant this is kind of a niche case, but it still seems like a bug in the AI.
Ship with no offensive options doesn't retreat

I must agree. That does seem a bit silly. If that haPpened to me I know I'd be charging up my FTL Engine as quickly as possible. It Ian good for immersion to see the AI not do something as simple as trying to conserve their lives
