Error in outcome of raider battles

Post by thedoctorking »

I had a raider passing through the Southeast Asia sea zone have an encounter with some British ships. I knew that odd outcomes were a possibility, so after sinking one of the opponents, I turned and made for my own base, only a few miles away, in order to enter port and avoid any problems. But the other Brit had the temerity to sink before I made it to Singapore, and so I got this result:

You really should do something about this. Scuttling at a neutral shore or being interned should only happen when there aren't any of your own bases around. I really hated to have to Ctrl-alt-delete out of a nice victory where my little CA blew up two bigger Brit cruisers!

And as far as saving and reloading is concerned, this game could use two functions - an autosave that saves your situation every turn before you push the turn button and some way to save and restore during battle. At least the first, because if you forget to save, then you lose several turns of play when you break out of a battle because of some error like this.
