How do I do that?

I'm having a problem. I've never encountered this before and I've been playing since the beginning. When I join a battle it seems there is a 4/5 chance that a battle timeout will occur. This means I will be unable to move my ship, and it will disconnect me from the battle after a short while. I have tried quitting the game and reconnecting dozens of times and this doesn't seem to do anything. It just repeats the cycle. I'm getting no issues with disconnections in Open World and I can assure you that my internet is 100% stable. I play other online games with no problems at all. Created one or two reports on this using the F11 function too. Regards Z.

I'm sure they don't need us (mere plebs in the game development area) to tell them what is best for them or to "save them from mistakes". And it's in the players' (or better "testers'" in this case) hands to (not) make a big issue out of a slight delay of an update, three and a half weeks into Early Access. As with all EA games (and even more so with projects that only have a small dev team behind them), the first few weeks of a successful EA are hardly the most productive. Surely that is logical enough to understand. Edit: This also goes towards your comment on "how long can it take to press the post button".

From what I have seen, the devs are very open and are regularly on the forums answering to user questions and the like. If they have not done so in this specific case there must be some reason behind that. I assume we'll get an update on the situation within the next few days. Coming on here and debating how long it actually takes to press the post button or scratch your bum is not constructive and is a bit stupid if you ask me. We wait and see. As they have encountered a lot of problems and are probably still debating how the issue can best be solved, I cannot fault them for postponing the update.

The crying from people who have no idea how game development works... Patch will come when it is ready.

Such is game development my friend. Nothing is certain ever. Next week it is.

Yeah, I'm awaiting this next patch for that reason too. It being Friday already, that change may get pushed to next week though :/

I see. Is there any chance of this changing in the future? Maybe adding a new mechanic for voting/deciding on who gets the ship/loot. As it is I've played a few battles and have won, but no ship yet. Thanks for your time.

Playing battles with other people (group) cedes me no captured loot/ships I play missions (that either I start or someone else). We win, I board and capture the enemy ship, the white flag goes up. I then press leave battle, to get to the Combat Results screen. Where there is nothing. I don't get the ships I have boarded and captured through this mission. I guess it's a programming bug or I'm missing something.
