my bug

when I first started FRED2 I used the tutorial and created word for word the mission they set up, I played it and as the orion was making it's escape (it has been successfully taken over) I took out it's engines and was about to just kill it... (instead of disabling and disarming it)

It would take a while so I turned up the time and as the destroyer reached about 10% it suddenly regained it's engines turned and flew about 30 towards the arcadia...

I watched the orion make a pass and it turned around and started heading toward me! the arcadia managed to destroy it before it came back... I replayed the mission and it never happened again, I looked in the mission and still don't know how the orion was able to do that...

anyone have this experience?

I've never had that happen to me.
Sometimes ships get caught on debris while they exit, so the warp animation plays but the ship doesn't move because it is stuck. However, the game registers the ship as gone so when you look at the ship again it has disappeared.

This is all speculation, by the way.
