Ships do not engage in combat

from GalCiv3 Forums

I am playing a tiny map as drenghi

I have a ship with the following attributes:  Escort, threat 0.7, fortitude 2.8, Value 2, Beams 6, Missles 4, Kinetic 0, Shields 24, armor 0, PD 0.

I attack an enemy shipyard with values, 3,3,3,3,3,3.

 

In the combat phase my ship flies up to the shipyard and then begins to circle it.  The shipyard opens fire and over time destroys my vessel, my ship never fires at the shipyard during the entire encounter.  I have seen many posters talking about missing, but my ship doesn't even fire any weapons at all.

Check the log that is generated during the encounter, you'll find your ship IS shooting and doing damage, just no SFX.

While that may be true, I can't go back and look as that game crashed and is no longer compatible or that is the error message I am getting now, but does it seem normal that two objects with those stats would end in my ship being destroyed?

Yes, because the shipyard probably had 2-3x as much hull as your ship did.
