if they would hyper every time they wouldnt have to be killed just to be safe, im wondering if maybe they warp out if engauged before a certain number of course changes in their path. or if systems are damaged such as shields and guns and the vette isnt there anymore.

I had a couple days where every gunship I attacked in kessle hypered out as soon as I got it's sheilds down. I'm not sure what causes that but the important thing is you cleaned up your trash. Good for you!

Last night the gunboats were circling the waypoint when I caught up to them after destroying the Corvette, so that is still happening.

I think i can safely say things are ok, checked the exit point a few times now since it happened and between some mining tripsand its clear
Lol, even went so far as to kill every rebel gunboat i did see no matter where it was in kessel just in case 
Now to go start my career in Storm Squadron 
Thank you all for your replies and time, Take care Pilots! /salute

Hello, i was just wondering if the corvettes escorts now hyper out of kessel if the corvette is destroyed?
I ask as i have just completed my 5th pilot squad (Imperial Inquisition), i was in kessel doing the first part of the mastery killing the 30 rebel ships, when i saw the corvette cruise by.
So i finished up on the 30 rebels and decided to disable the corvette while i could see it and then go get the second part of the mission to kill it and come back and finish up... lazy i know but i couldnt resist striking while the iron was hot so to speak 
So i killed the corvs fighter escort off and then proceeded to disable the corvette, once done i high tailed it back to Theed and got my 'destroy corv' mission and high tailed it back to kessel. There was the corv where i left her, the gunboats had moved on a bit but not too far yet. I flew in and finished her off and cheered a little 
Then i went off to clear up my mess and kill the gunboats... flew after them, parked up behind for the nice fast kill and proceeded to fire away. After i got the firstgunboats shields down and was taking outs its 2nd gun both of them hypered out... leaving me alone in the cold void... i headed to the exit point and flew around looking for other gunboats in case i had gone after the wrong ones, but found only a few fighters and imp gunboats.
Is this now normal that the escort will hyper away even if corvette doesnt? I am now panicking that i have left them in kessel and was after the wrong gunboats... i dont want to delay the respawn. I plan to go back periodically to the exit point to check through out the night just in case.
Any advice would be gratefully taken, thank you all for your time in reading this.

That rarely happens. Most of the time the GBS spin around at the exit untill they are destroyed. Sometimes the bug doesn't happen.

Ah i thought the bug happened every time, which is why the sight of them hypering away confused me.
Thanks for the reply
