I have disabled a number of frigate class warships by shooting out the generators but I am unable to board them as they just spin the only way I have found to stop them is by blasting the cpu, a solution if you know where it is other wise its blast the ship to pieces. It is much more fun to board the ship and fight the crew then core it and loot it. Another problem I have had is just not being able to enter the ships at all.
Anyone having this problem if you log out and back its stops spinning but only for large vessels small ones just despawn. This is a real pain if you play Project Eden as the bandit ships are small enough to despawn so you can not get the bounty tokens its just rubbish.
Can confirm I too have this issue almost all the time I disable an enemy ship by destroying the generators. Not sure if this is an Empyrion bug or a Reforged Eden bug because I really only play Reforged Eden these days. I do know that playing single player I have been able to rectify this with a simple log out and log back into the game (just an exit back to the main menu). This is for sure a pita and a fix for this would be most welcome. However, after browsing for this specific bug I have found reports of this on this forum from a year ago that has been archived as "read only" and "unable to duplicate." Which leads me to believe this is a Reforged Eden bug so maybe try one of the forums for them.
What works for me is back away from the ship until you see it starts flying, somewhere around 4 km you will see the square icon and the name start jump in increments like all moving ships do, head back to the ship and it will stop and won't be spinning. Have seen this on planet when I cored a patrol ship and looted it and when I was exploring elsewhere I noticed on my map the ship was moving and I had taken the thrusters and left my core in it so I went back to see what was going on and it was stopped but wasn't in the same place had moved back to it's patrol area .
