*Shakes fist* at java.lang.Random
« on: May 01, 2012, 05:08:31 PM »


On a side note..... I only lost 1 crewman yet both Thunders were destroyed.

Is this a new bug, or do pilots now have a % chance of surviving?

There's a higher chance for crew to survive, yeah. In the previous version it was tuned in a way that entirely discounted the possibility of ejecting, escape pods, etc - too brutal.

It's moments like this I want to take my "second in command" and jettison him out an airlock.

Dear Alex,
There should be a battlestation/star fortress fight in the main menu mission mode.  :)

Was a new game; didn't have anything else.

Well, now that you mention it, I think we know where that one casualty came from. I, too, would jettison a second-in-command who was a mere REGULAR crew!
