not unless it had a tiny/no cargo hold - otherwise brilliance running would be trivial

like the gun cooler, thrust enhancer, shield regen booster &c? it was all there in RF.

wow. thanks for the pointer. it almost makes the game too easy, though. not to mention you ..

coming back to a plot fixer after accepting their mission double-enters it in your computer

see, mine didn't show as damaged at all. the basic repair option fixes that, but is rather expensive...

the problem there is i doubt the admiral is the type to ask when he suspects the answer will be no. unlike before, he doesn't have the "mutual benefit" card to play. he could just take the gun, and when the main character shows up to ask about it, goodin meets him and basically tells him...

jump point thresholds block shots weapons don't actually take up any space, but the game thinks they do, to the point that the following is possible: demon loaded up (0 of 12 space free), 1 tach, 3 fusions. sell tach, can't buy 4th fusion, can't buy tach back, still 0 of 12. the faction...

*easter egg*? there's player-mountable *easter eggs*?! where?

autopilot doesn't restore shields (debatable - it didn't in the original game, if memory serves, but probably should have) - neither does landing, which definitely should.

basically, to the repair screen, 10% is not overall percentage of armor remaining, but worst damage to armor - ie at the weakest point, the armor is 90% gone.

i think this engine handles armor as an overall thing, rather than the original's four-facings handling. which can be a pain, because you can no longer keep a damaged side away from enemy. on the plus side, they can't do it to you either.

game engine bugs: selling / reloading allows several exploits, including duplications and getting stuff early possible to buy redundant things possible to tractor in odd things sometimes ship graphic is on wrong side of repair/upgrade screen radar can get damaged without...

hmm. perhaps there's a huge party to celebrate the end of the war... a party which takes place on jolson...

it might help if equipment that could never mount on the ship you're currently flying was either displayed in a different color or not displayed at all...

yeah, if lynch says he's disappointed in you, that sounds like mission failed dialogue

(deleted) broke forum rules. oops. sorry. mea culpa.

i've always felt that that was why the fusion gun was suddenly available. sort of origin's way of saying 'sorry we had the alien gun stolen, but that's the mcguffin that drives this game; here's some nice new guns to make up for it.' i considered that, except a) we have to get the player...

hmm. that wasn't so hard as i was expecting. they rammed each other, they flak-ed each other, and they never even took my shields down. amusingly enough, you can just sit 2km away right in front of them and shoot them dead - the wingtip guns can't hit you. for some reason, half of them departed...

if memory serves, in the original games, FF missiles didn't require anything. no lock, no target, no nothing. just kick them into space and let them fly. of course, they do require a radar that can do IFF, but besides that...

so i needed money for all this cool new RF technology. so i took a mission out of perry for new detroit: "take out a kamekh. ship is thought to have 18 other ships for protection." no problem, thought i; i'll just shelton slide back and forth across the zone and let them shoot each...
