Sorry, not sure if I have the terms right as I’ve only just started playing.
Fought a pirate ship and was looking at the options – loot and scuttle or claim it with a skeleton crew. Wasn’t sure and wanted to see if the Help Me info had anything about it. Clicked Help Me and couldn’t get back to looting or claiming the conquered pirate ship. Options and ship both gone.
If this is intentional, maybe a confirmation dialogue when navigating away from the actions at hand would help.
