Bug or feature?

Well, I just figured, my COVAS never worked more then 1 thargoid's pulse yet. As AX CZ were rare it didn't come to my attention.
So what I mean covas says “Energy surge detected,” only ONCE per fight then sound shutters and covas never talks at all till the end of fight.
Also got weird thing once, 2nd fighter in hangar, my pilot was rejecting ALL and ANY orders and just following me in "maintain distance" mode (except docking), but 1st fighter in the same hangar was accepting orders and do real fights...

So, does it look like sort of bug? >:

Sometimes EMP will turn off fighters weapon modules so you need to transfer to fighter and turn the modules on. When EMP does switch of fighters weapons it wont follow attack orders¬

Yes, I noticed the same yesterday. Managed to neutralize the first surge but the second got me.

Edit the hud message still appeared imho, not sure though.
