AHHas something changed in how Interdiction works? I had 2 weird interdiction where I was following the escape vector perfectly but just in few seconds, I was dropped out of FTL. Never happened before. Now I had 2 of those in 2 days. Firs joker is pushing up daisies somewhere and the second one was a no show.



Did you submit?


Hell no.
But, I do not have any idea how to do that. I guess you need to miss the escape vector or something.

If you zero your throttle during interdiction you will automatically submit. So is it possible you closed your throttle whilst you chased the escape vector?

Interesting. Maybe. I think it's possible.
Good news is, it earned me >250K for blowing up that clown.

In which case it's an advantage that you submitted, the drop from super cruise is less brutal allowing you to initiate combat quicker, and no cool down on your drives just in case it goes pear-shaped on you.

Today is truly auspicious day for AXMCs, they earned me the decorated hero medal. The war with goids are coming to the end but I still hope to take down 2 more medusas and 1 hydra and whatever lesser goids come in between.
