Yeah, same here.

Speaking of the rewards, I think they should be better...

But it sure makes for a lot of missiles to loot when it's all over! Averaging 100 - 150 missiles per wreck really adds up. :twisted:

Yeah, same here, GnS. The only thing I really did was draw fire and beat up on whatever shot at me. It's almost like the event didn't play right. Last game I played, the entire system was filled with wrecks. This time, there are MAYBE 10 wrecks right next to the station.

When I'm close to a friendly station, enemies won't attack me (even though they shouldn't care about firing at a station unfriendly to them) and just fly around aimlessly while the station weapons or guarding ships finish them off. This may be a bug, or just something that could be improved. I'm not sure that this holds true for all friendly stations, so perhaps the rest of you can be on the look out for it. Also, do Teratons ever attack anyone who attacks their nests besides the player character?

Agreed, they should attack regardless since they're considered to be enemies.

And no, Teratons will only attack the player. They'll sit idle while an AI hammers them to shreds. I've actually used that to my advantage while "teasing" Ranx D's. Let them cap the Teraton nests and loot the rewards!

they don't want to fire near friendly stations to prevent from killing stations and having the enemy blamed just because they landed the final blow.

I haven't played much with the Teratons so I can't comment on them.

That's right it looks silly, especially when it is being hit by a guard ship you'd expect it to fight back.

I had two instances now where I was sitting almost right on top of Ranx Dreadnaught, smashing it to death with a FusionFire. The Dreadnaughts didn't even try to defend themselves from me, they kept shooting at the station they were attacking when I found them.
The second one started firing at me after the CW Settlement was conveniently destroyed for my looting pleasure.

Another minor interface glitch:

In 98 (havent got 98a yet...) when you upgrade your reactor, the name on the energy heads up doesnt change, so it'll still say eg Wolfen Reactor when youve put in a Nova 100

I think that may have something to do with the reactors now being a part of the ship and no longer considered a device? Correct me if I'm wrong.

Definitely a bug in 0.98 and 0.98a. This regressed when I added the screen to pick a starting ship.

Fixed in the next release. Thanks for posting!

EDIT: Nvm, the ore was underneath the asteroid.

Minor bug; on the Refugee escort mission, the victory message at the fortress babbles something about the supplies being desperately needed.

I have no idea if this is a bug or not, probably isn't...but...
I just pressed t in a nebula. Unknown hostile. is that normal? My omni tev-9 didn't fire in the direction, which was behind me, but rather attacked forward like normal.
