actually, i dont' know if this is a good thing (certainly keeps people fromrunning away), is the way the combat map ends, if it continued (ala Space Velocity or other such game into infinity) or wrapped around then people could easily run from fights they couldn't win wiht crappier engines. I guess this allows the 'im gonna get you with my battlemoon' thing to work but still it seems unfair that the map just stops and the colony ship is stuck there (due to bad AI mostly) and gets swallowed by ships it could have out run in real life. Ohwell.
