RESOLVED - End of Combat turn selects ship in a diff sector

Post by Bansheedragon »

I just started a new game, and encountered a really annoying problem.
I built 1 transport and 1 scout.

I send the transport to Pluto to board the Kor'Thaz probe.
Since I was unable to get the shields of the probe down in the first round I had to end the combat turn to be able to fire again.
But when I click done to end the turn of the ship, the combat window selects my scout that are 2-3 sectors away.
And no matter how many times I click done on the scout ship, it does not move back to the transport.

I could understand the scout being selected if it was in the same sector, but it selects the scout no matter how far away it is, and refuses to let me select the transport again as if it could only attack once during combat.

I have to end the combat, then end the turn to start combat again the next turn to be able to engage the probe again.
This happens every time I end the combat turn of the transport, I tried restarting the game thinking it was a minor glitch, but it still happens.

This was not a problem in previous versions of the game, and I dont think this is intended either.

Thanks for reporting this, we have fixed it for the next update. It was a peculiar issue, definitely not intended. Until the fix what you can do is use the com button to switch to the transport, it will then stay with it for the rest of the turn.
