Default seeking advice about how to handle a bug (as host)

I am hosting SEV on PBW, v1.74 + Balance Mod v1.14b. My unarmed scout entered a wormhole. On the other side were my opponent's fighters. I received a combat report, but it would not load. And, according to the combat detail, all fighters were killed! My scout went on its merry way without a scratch.

When I went into combat simulator and simulated the battle, the fighters were set to ram my ship, and they all died without penetrating my organic armor. So, this is a conceivable explanation. Is it the case that the combat simulator uses the orders that were assigned to a ship?

For future reference, is there anything I can do, as host, to address bona fide bugs? Can I re-run the turn on PBW? What, in general, is the best policy for dealing with bugs? I hate to re-run turns, and even if I do, this may not cure the problem. But, I also see that it could be very frustrating to be the victim of this bug. Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks, DB
