It was a class 6 Pirate design Cutter.

Here's the save where I'm about to go capture it... if you play it you'll notice it doesn't shoot at you.

hmmm i'm wondering if this might infact be a widespread issue - and indeed part of the reported 'All ships going neutral' bug to boot. It would explain why in some ship-ship encounters only the lead ships seem to engage, then when one surrenders the rest just sail of - not carry on fighting? If some ships are being created with no cannons that would make sense?
So what part in the code determines if a ship has cannons or not?(hat?hook?Pirate_kk(where is he these days?)Pieter?) - and more importantly what part creates a ship with no cannons?
might this be another example of too many spawns(of ships in this case) using up all available cannon locators kind of thing? Might be worth reducing the ammount of ships that spawn in a ship-ship battle?
