TEC Corsev capital ship ability Salvage Operation confusing (May be a bug)

It says when friendly ships blow up within the radius it gains a percentage of their health.  However, it also states that there is a bonus if the ship was boarded when it blows up?  I think I have witnessed them gain health from the destruction of enemy ships, too.  I havn't really tested it though, so it could be wrong.

So either the discription is wrong, or it's just not very clear.  Does it mean ships that you have taken over by boarding?

 

Also, is the boarding ability is confusing too.  Does the enemy ship have to be killed by boarding, or can it be killed by something else while it's being boarded?

Yeah I noticed this as well. The Corsev is really bad at describing what it does.

If a friendly ship gets popped, the Corsev gets some health back.

If a friendly ship captured with Boarding Action gets popped, the Corsev gets some more health back.

Simples. *squeak*

It seems that the Corsev now also regains health when enemy ships explode. Don't know if it's a bug, but I think it is pretty cool.

Salvage operations work on both friendly and enemy ships. Even destroyed enemy strike craft heals it.

Then it's definitely a bug, since it says that salvage operations only works on friendly ships.

Sorry, I did a quick search and didn't see any other posts.  I must have missed it.
