Default Re: how to stop ships from running away

"Couldn't you also put the ship in a fleet? Could work untill the ship gets refitted with a regular weapon."

Ships without anything to do will ALWAYS run away unless you tell them to ram.

PD-only ships will run until missiles are fired, then come closer, then run when the missiles go away.

Boarding-only ships will run if the enemy has shields.

Troop transports will run if there are weapons platforms on the surface AND there are friendly armed ships.

They will also break formation to do that..
