Weird AI behaviour

I had already fired all my torpedos. The worst part was that it kept resetting time compression to 1 every 2-4 seconds, because it kept reappearing on my line of sight all the time. Now imagine 1000 kilometres with this nightmare. I was so furious, I almost uninstalled the game.

Sometimes I wonder if video game devs test their own games at all. How could this possibly get past quality control? Just how?

Another funny thing was this one time when the seemingly scripted warship came hunting for me from behind again but this time... during the night. During the freaking night. If that's not bad enough for you, I was so frustrated I decided to simply click All Stop and see what happens. And you will never guess this. It raced towards me at full speed, and flew right by me a couple meters to my right. I understand it's December and nights are pitch-dark, but still its line of sight was really, really small, it's ridiculous. (By the way, I was on the surface, if you didn't already guess it.) Anyway, it turned around and circled around me for a long while. It was kinda amusing the first 2 minutes but then I just gave up, opened the map, plotted the course towards the base and ignored him for a couple hours and he just left me be. So weird. These bugs totally break the game for me.
