Thats an another example of rare original game's bug being exposed by 1.5 to occurs way more frequently. By now workaround is to turn strict_combat_sequencing=0 for battles, where you expect many ship capture actions to happen. It could be done without the need to abandon the current save, by changing the config file, saving it, and pressing alt+RE in main screen prior such battles, then turning it on back same way for turns, where you wouldnt get them.
PS Oh, sorry, forgot initially: and great thanks, Dent, for providing a save to solve it.

This issue should now be solved with the 1.50.3.1 patch.
No update for ICE was needed.

Great, and yes, savegames help tremendously for finding causes for such issues.

Can any of you guys help me locate the area in which I can double the command points required for ships ?? I can only find start points 5 star bases and comms tech to edit. I also want to increase the -10 be per command point to -20 or -30. I can find this anywhere in the ICE-X Cfg file

Any help would be great many thanks

^
The ice cfg now allows you to adjust the command points usage for ships (courtesy of the 1.5 patch)
Look for ship_command_points_usage in config.

>
ice just updated to 13b:
- Scout Lab tech moved to Field of Capsule Construction.

- Damper Field now kills 80% of troops that attempt to board via Transporters.
(help mentioned 95% in ice 13a, but actual value was at classic 75% since ice 12)

- Adjusted Random Events. Some can now happen earlier, from t40:
computer virus, donation, earthquake, population boom and unstable wormhole.

- AI should now better assess enemy fleet strength that has black hole generators.

- Renamed COMMON.CFG to ICEMOD.CFG (old common.cfg can be manually deleted from folder)

A new single player mod? After all these years? Must try it...
Self-quote...seems I sew this mod 2 years ago, but didn't get around to actually trying it out.

Maybe now is a good time :D

ICE 18 makes use of scripting to achieve the following:

1. Choosing High-G World will make you homeworld Huge.
2. The AI Gnolam race now starts on a small Gaia planet instead of a medium Terran one.
