That would require lots more coding. I simply propose that if a ship reaches the edge of the battle area it should just drop out of combat and be listed as survived. In simultaneous games, this would likley translate into more of a running engagement between fleets where the first battle the escorts fight it out and the loosers auxiliary ships run, and then a series of fights as the winning fleet chases down the auxiliary ships if they can catch them.
