So I got tired of enemy ships disappearing when using one laser there's not enough time to generate enough damage before they use hypdedrive or phase shift drive to escape; and I read in another thread that the object was to keep them in the asteroids.... So; I've been playing at the resource extraction site near chango dock.
When a enemy ship starts to leave the field, and run away, I let them go now... no point in chasing something that will just run away; but apparently they can leave masslock, start the drive charging, and then come back into mass lock and attack me... so I get them on the run again, and they disappear in the middle of the field! Well so much for being clever.
Shouldn't they just automatically explode or something if the drive activates in a masslock region? Then I should get credit for the kill.
This has happened 5 or 6 times now... so I tested it; and ya, I can leave masslock region, start charging the drive, head back into combat and then warp away at some point later.
