Minor Bug Hold Missions?

Recently started taking "hold" against Xenon Invasion missions in Black Hole Sun. 1st mission killed all Xenon in sector but mission did not complete. Eventually jumped out and mission aborted & I lost the bounty.

Few game days later took 2nd hold mission in Black Hole Sun, same thing happened. Quite a large bounty involved so investigated further. Turned out at leaast one M had gone through the gate to Treasure Chest, a Xenon Patrol had moved through Black hole Sun in the middle of the Invasion may or may not be connected. Could not leave sector without aborting mission so called in a couple of my M6's to OOS destroy all the Xenon in Treasure Chest, when this was done mission paid out.

I would call that a bug. Having to leave the sector to kill remmanents xenons and failing the missions because leave the sector is not an expected behavior in my opinion.

Well, it just the explanation of why it occurs, but it's still a bug for me. Whatever avoids you to complete a mission without having to know tips beforehand is a bug for me.

But if chasing them down means leaving sector and failing because of that, then I call it a bug. What if you only have one combat ship and cannot deal with them OOS?

As I said, you have to know some tricks beforehand to be able to complete the mission.

its contentious as Black Hole Sun has always been invaded by roving Xenon since days of X2 The Threat.

All I tend to do is pick fight with any P's or Q's,in my game P's are normally part of the invasion mission's and the odd K or J, once the big Xenon are gone mop up the little Xenon, in some case's you get lucky and the local M6's tend to have beaten M's and L's.

Seems to be an odd Solo Q with L's that come in for fight from time to time, if you attack them during invasion mission you don't seem to get payout on screen, normally indicating your attacking wrong group.
