I am on the Lynn Murphy series of missions in Privateer 1. Before Murphy 1, Confed and Militia were friendly to my ship. After Murphy 1, they were Neutral. After Murphy 2, they were hostile! I have destroyed absolutely no confed or militia ships up to this point. What has happened?
The Murphy 1 and 2 missions were extremely difficult, and due to a slightly older computer (1.2 ghz, running in dosbox), it is difficult to target on the enemy ships in the Murphy missions due to slight slowdown. I beat Murphy 1 and 2 solely by colliding into the enemy ships instead of firing upon them (I have a level 4 shield generator that allows my orion class ship to survive this). Despite the fact that the ships I collided with to destroy were all "bad" hunter ships, could this have somehow affected my alignment with the confed and the militia? I can't seem to beat Murphy 1 or 2 properly yet with tachyon cannons and missiles, and collision is very convenient.
Any ideas?
