ORIGINAL: Chet Guiles This is an awesome game, but I am trying to respond to any "buggy" behavior because it's obvious that the developers are interested and responsive. So if y'all would prefer me to shut up, say so and I will wait patiently for new updates.

I have had issues (see previous posts) with the GxBO crash, but by trying to stay away from assigning patrols and building ships on my own I seem to be able to largely avoid that -- maybe one game in three crashes now. (I can't be sure why!)

I had thought that when working in 1.04b2 ships under manual control would auto-refuel and then resume their original assigned tasks.

I note particularly with Exploration ships that they do OK automatically heading in for refuel, but when refuel is done I always get a "Mission Completed" message and the ship waits for a new assignment -- EVEN when their original mission (usually to explore a region) was nowhere near complete.

I like the idea that they should resume where they left off. That way I only have to worry about them when they have actually completed a mission, or get eaten by the Kaltors.

Am I missing something in the "Options" section, or is this actually a "bug"?

Anyone else had this issue?

ORIGINAL: bloodystump I've also reported this issue. For me it's happening if a ship switches to some secondary mission at the time refuelling gets triggered (like escaping an attack).

The problem seems to occur if refuelling and escaping missions get used together, for example;

Ship has a patrol mission gets attacked Runs escape mission and stores the patrol mission Ship now has an escape mission and needs to refuel Runs refuel mission and stores the escape mission (overwriting originally stored patrol mission) Ship finishes refuelling mission and restores the stored escape mission Escape mission completes Ship has no more missions so returns to "no mission" status.
