Whats with Dipomatic Missions giving Combat Missions?

I thought I was to do another scan X mission, but I'm running into hostiles. This obviously isn't right.

Be nice if players could actually call themselves diplomats and talk their way out of a fight. :rolleyes:



BTW, why are these missions regarded as diplomatic anyhow? Aiding can be diplomatic, not murder solving or scaning ruins.

Yea, I got one of those too. Obviously you don't get any diplomatic experience on these, so they have no point being diplomatic missions *rolls eyes*

And IIRC we still don't get dpx when in a invesitgate planet/base mission, as you're supposed to, if hostiles are persent.

Sometimes diplomacy breaks down and hostiliies insue?
Or its a bug.
