Escort missions don't work the same in the full Version..specificlly in the 1.11 patch:

Fixed - Changed the event requirements for escort missions. Just before the time for the job expires, the map is checked to see if the escort ship is still alive, if it is then the job is a success. This replaces the requirement of being near the escort ship.

The 1.13 patch corrected that somewhat but didn't change how it works.
