In an older version (.95? .96?) there was a limit on how many times you can resurrect. Don't ask how I found out. It was about 95 or so...I think the limit should be much lower...how about 20-30 or so? And Domina is involved somehow. Make it like Nethack prayers; Domina won't let you ressurect if you had a very low standing. Or make it a moddable option?

I don't know much of what I'm talking about, but maybe someone else does.

Resurrecting takes points away from your score. I don't know how many(don't resurrect enough). If you don't have enough points, you can't resurrect. This is why if you self destruct at the start of a game, you can't resurrect.

really? I thought that if i self-destructed.... i can't ressurect cause i didn't save...oh well. BTW: I've ressurected like 45 times higest.

thats nothing. I once got pinned on a planet by 3 wind slavers, and wasn't strong enough to get away or kill them... notched up 300 ressurects.

Ouch. Similar situation happened with me as well. But what really bytes, is making (and repeating) stupid mistakes that cause me to get killed. Like trying to take on the Tripoli in the arena with a Class II shield, weak armor and just the omni laser. Or worse, forgetting to re-enable the ICX when jumping to Heretic. I've died many times because I forgot to re-enable the ICX after undocking from the Ringers shipyard before the jump.

How could you sit there and resurrect 300 times?
You have very much more patience than I do.

It was a good save. An I was bored.

LMAO! My most common mistake was forgetting to disable an ICX near the black market/ringers . BANG!

dvlenk6 · Sun Dec 10, 2006 1:24 am

I've been killed by ringers because of the ICX so many times that I gave counting a long time ago.

FAD · Sun Dec 10, 2006 7:05 am

Same here, and that's why I disable it before docking. Now to always remember to re-enable whenever jumping to Heretic and I'll be fine.

dvlenk6 · Sun Dec 10, 2006 9:42 am

In my case it is forgetting to disable it when docking.
And reactivate it afterwards.
Picture - Kiloton Cannon shells hammering into you while you are franctically trying activate the forgotten ICX, at the time as attempting to get behind some kind of cover... -

What's really strange is that my ICX works while i'm docked. I wish...er suggest*hint george or everyone*that while i'm docked....plz don't make time pass. I hit the staion while i'm docked.

evilbob · Sun Dec 10, 2006 7:26 pm

thats why you disable it while you dock.

goat not sheep · Sun Dec 10, 2006 9:26 pm

I do now, but sometimes, when the ranx are chasing me, the ranxs are still haging out with me even though i was docked. I undocked...BANG! XXX died.
