Anyone know what's up with the Spaniards in Thalia?

I don't think you have been a "few weeks" at Thalia. Turnaround time is supposed to be 24 hrs (which is realistic in real life, where neutrals would intern belligerent ships after 24-72 hours, but unrealistic given the repairs you get in the game).

But to the bigger question... the AI apparently thinks you shot and hit a Spanish ship either on your way in or way out, in the past 24 hours.

I could imagine, for example, a scenario where you accidentally hit a ship, then teleported to Thalia before the harbor boats saw you. They would be loaded for bear as you departed.

It happens. PITA though.
