Forced quit when I press retreat button of my science ship

[FreddyChen]

Every time when I pushed the retreat button of my science ship, the whole game would crash.

No matter how I restarted the game.

This is a serious bug.

I was playing this game on my MacBook.

I noticed this as well. I found a system with a ring world, and despite the computers' warning, I tried exploring it because the rich minerals event marked one of the planets in the system. After the defense stations engaged my science ship, I tried to hit the "retreat" button as soon as it was available, and my game crashed. Luckily there was an auto-save from just after my ship entered the system. I'm playing on a Mac Pro desktop computer which I expect is more powerful than the OP's laptop.

I run into same issue on Linux (twice - on first time and after load from save). I waited a little bit and successfully retreated.

Had this happen to me as well it seems if you wait a month or so before retreating it does not crash the game (maybe it has something to do with the shortened emergency-FTL for civilian ships)
Saddly a science ship normaly cannot survive that long without retreating^^

This happens to me every time when a science ship retreats when I have that ship selected. It happens if it is retreating automatically or if because I hit the retreat button. I'm using Windows with lowest graphical settings.
