VS Bug

Post by ShadowOblivion »

I don't know where to really post this.. but here goes.

I was going about my business in this Rlaan system, trading for some credits in my Plowshare when I was attacked by a pirate Corvette. Naturally, I picked up some speed and let loose my Dumbfire missiles upon it.. only to notice that they had apparently struck an Uln Gleaner which was rapidly spinning about. Things got stranger after the Corvette was obliterated by the in-system authorities. I went in to salvage the stuff the Corvette had dropped when the Gleaner rapidly approached me. I didn't think it was angry, because it wasn't locked onto me, but then its turrets opened up and in short order I was in an escape pod... that it then tried to ram! But, instead of splattering on it, I passed through it! Thinking I'd cut into its severely damaged hull with my HandLaser( :lol: I know), I attacked, after all, I had little to lose! This made it angry again, so the turrets fired upon me, and... I ejected again, and again! It seemed that no matter how many times I died(3), I'd simply eject from my escape pod in another pod!

There also seems to be a discrepancy in the ships in-game with the communications module. For example, a Pirate Hyena was just destroyed, but the game says Ship destroyed: pirates:Corvette: Jinny Squadron-1. This seems to happen very often.

Whahaha ejecting in a escape pod... from a escape pod?! Now that is something that made me laugh.

Well, sometimes a ship is destroyed at the other side of the system, every so often. Maybe you misinterpreted it...? Probably, me thinks. But lets see other users comments :P

Ah, MC707, I see where this is going... I'll be paying the Bug Triage some more visits soon, no doubt. This particular game that I described is still rolling(I made it to the planet I was near and got into my Llama, speaking of which. the escape pod now shows up as a ship in my fleet! but unfortunately I can't pilot or use it anymore), so I assume some data would come in handy? A screen shot, perhaps?

BTW you can sell that escape pod and it's pilot IIRC

Enjoy the Choice :)

loki1950, I can't really, for it's not in my cargo roster(and that's me we're talking about selling!), but in My Fleet. I could make a screenshot to show you.

Right, so you go to the ship dealer, and sell the pod there. Yeah, it tells you you're selling a pilot into slavery, yadda yadda, but that's not really what you're doing. :wink:

By the way, does anyone know whether you actually get any black marks for buying or selling any sort of contraband?

No black marks as it would depend on the local system laws and there is currently no check for that.

Enjoy the Choice :)

Ahh... well... I could see that getting complicated, when it does... :shock:

Well, I hope, by then, it's a little more clearly acceptable to sell off your ejection pod. :wink:
