Escape Capsule?

Post by Namttep »

Am I mad? Yes Very!

why is it my escape capsule is always the first thing destroyed or damaged in a bad furball?

I think it should be hardened agains such failure, maybe the one thing that is....

coming into Rave in galaxy 2 on an assassination mission I was pounced on right after hyperspacing in, no time to get my barings, no time to hit the local map to set a safe haven for if I had to leave quickly, my shields where stripped in seconds, my escape pod was the first equipment to be damaged, then my fuel injectors...then I got my favourite 'press space commander' screen that I love to see.


anyone out there who can come up with a hardened escape capsule that can't be damaged would be my hero!

I can do you a self-repairing one in 1.74, or a hardened undamagable one in 1.75.

How patient are you? :twisted:

OK, download and install this OXP and your escape capsule can no longer be damaged (or more accurately as soon as it's damaged it will immediately self-repair).
