Almost died tonight.......the T-1 caught me 1.07a

yes, T-1 is my favorite Salvager gone over to the other side....he carries reloading missile launchers and while often tame around the player : can sometimes wake up on the wrong side of the system.

Tonight he was shooting a Laser Array so when I saw him and moved my ship :
i had no place to go because it WAS NOT the weapon I gave it.

Obviously the Salvager codes include the ability to upgrade weapons .
I had THOUGHT I noticed this feature previously in a different version but was never sure until my own ship shot me.

P.s. after the Array shocked me because it was not in the design : he busted my shields with Missiles and nearly took out my starboard Armor ( got away with 11 hit points on that side but I was carrying extra Armor since I expected the T-1 sooner or later).

Shane you created a monster!

I did..... but the T-1 in the new adventure is actually the T-3 ; i replaced the launcher today : less hit but more rockets

However...it is still a beast to get caught by because the missiles are still directional .

To make things WORSE: the Salvagers are obviously allowed to upgrade/ replace more then the primary weapon (YIKES!!!)
the T-1 is hard enough to kill and get away from being a Salvager with a rocket launcher : this twist of having the ability to redecorate itself with equipment and maybe the system with my ship.....not funny.

But it is Evil and I like evil LOL.
** the T-1 will be the T-3 in this new idea : it is a standard Salvager: just Hostile with a limited number of rockets ..Unless it can change the launcher too it is not much a serious threat by the time it gets halfway in a system hating everybody ( it is an Anarchist Sov so It has no serious friends ( which was meant to help the player if it catches you down ) but this upgrade ability kind of changes the adventure....oh..if you kill the T-3..another will come ..they keep coming.
