I didn't think that was a bug. I thought it was programmed that way for a reason to stop people from running.

That is OFF TOPIC! It has nothing to do with the post or the thread

oops - my bad :oops: that's what hapens when I'm reading 3 threads at once.

What I meant to say (in this thread) was that I thought the only negative programming in this instance was that you automatically died if you shut the game down during an attack - there's nothing in Mit's original post about not being able to infimp outta there

Its the intention to disable all drives (except the ion drive) when you're under attack.. doubt anyone would ever bother with any risky combat without that restriction.
This'll all be changed over soon.. Also added code in next client to reset the missile objects if you do happen to change system while any are active.
