Ship escape Events

This category contains events with enemy ships trying to escape. These events can roughly be divided into several groups:

• Rebel ships and Auto-ships that charge their FTL Drive to warn the Rebel Fleet - Rebel Fleet advancement hazard events (40 seconds countdown timer, AI ships never surrender).
• All ship fights in the Out-of-Fuel situations - Out-of-fuel events (80 seconds countdown timer, ships don't surrender (exception: Pirate ships with default rewards have 50% chance for surrender offer). The Out-of-fuel events occur only when you press the WAIT button on the beacon map.
• Other events with scripted escape sequence, either from the beginning of the encounter, or upon reaching a certain hull threshold. Escape countdown timer varies; some ships are guaranteed to surrender, while others do not.

Note: all ships start charging their FTL Drive when you have no fuel left after your jump to the beacon.
