When enemy ships ask me to take some gold to let them go away, i always refused and demanded surrender and they would lower their sails and stay still while i could just navigate to and board them. But now enemy ships will try to escape and will not low their sails after i demand their surrender. Even if i am the first to ask for surrender and they accept, they will try to flee anyway.
Ah, yes. I think a recent Maelstrom change might have caused that. None of the ships would ever try to avoid an enemy from getting too close, which would allow them to board more easily, so I changed that within the engine itself, even when they are commanded to "DRIFT" and not move. But I probably need to allow an exception for when ships have been set to DRIFT, but because they have surrendered. I will look at fixing for that exception.
