Default modding issue

After making various modifications to the SE IV data files to account for my own personal tastes, I've been confronted with a problem that has completely thwarted the realization of my own humble galactic domination.

When sending a ship into strategic combat, it will totally avoid the enemy. It simply flies into a corner on the map regardless of how much more heavier-armed armed it is than its opponent. The exact same problem when my ship is up against a single planet with absolutely no defenses, it just zooms away from the battle.

I've messed around a bit and discovered that the absence of a spaceyard component, any cargo components, and both the gravitational condenser and resonator will make the problem go away and the ship will merrily lay to waste any enemy on the battlemap. However, I really like those components.

Does anyone recognize what the problem might be? I'm completely at a loss here.
