Campaign bug?

[Speedy]

Earlier today I encountered a possible bug in the campaign. I had sent a Task Force off 32 ships of on a mission when in the space of about 2 game hours I was dropped down into the tactical battle 3 times only to have the end battle window pop up within seconds each time with it saying that there were 0 enemy ships involved in the battle?

Also it might be a good idea to add a bug reporting sub forum, it would certainly make it easier when checking to make sure a bug you experience hasn't already been reported.

Cheers

I have had this happen to me, it seems to be linked to the enemy force instantly disengaging and making a run for it rather than standing and fighting.

On another occasion it occured when a single merchant was on the edge of my single destroyers visibility. It immediately went beyond being visible and the battle screen went back to the campaign map. Then it almost immedately sent me back to the battle screen where I sunk the merchant this time around. It could be linked to the way in which the game senses the proximity of a target on its 'radar'. If the target is close to, or on, the edge of that radar and quickly moves out of visibility you get dumped out of the battle very quickly.
