Hello. Sometimes I have bug, then my caravan fight without me, and I automatically fail the quest. Then it fight, I can’t help them, I’m not use flee bottom. Sorry, but I can’t give you printscreen, becouse I rarely take this type of contracts, and not every contract have this trouble.
It always happens to me if I have a campaign set to Ironman mode, because my computer’s too crap to handle the rapid auto-saving in that mode. Apparently it works fine on other computers.
