Maybe because I got sunk in that encounter, it's stuck somehow if I interact again with that situation? Very weird. But anyway I just avoided that whole scene and now it's working fine again. Yes I cheated

haven't seen that before.
totally unexplainable.

i had a similar experience...kinda sorta the opposite cause: i sank a ship, saved and very shortly thereafter CTD. the saved game would NOT reload.
i had to retreat to the save prior to the sinking and then NOT sink that ship when it passed by.
very odd.

HOWEVER (notice the caps ) this occurred with a prior release of FOTRSU and has not occurred with either 1.46 or the recently released Preview Edition.
