Passive Fleet Whilst Under Attack?

[defekt]

Anyone else seeing your fleets refuse to engage assailants? It's not just your fleets either, it's the space stations as well. An enemy fleet wades in but everything sits there taking a battering refusing to return fire.

I have found that if you move your fleet out of the system with the assailants, then move it back in again, fighting begins the way you'd expect it to.

I've not found a way to recreate this problem. Seems random.

very old bug, still not fixed.

Solution is to reload the game, combat usually instantly starts up, and yea it is an old bug sadly.
