Well they do sound like they are in a bit of pain before they die. Maybe they should burst with a pop when they get too hot. and leave a sticky mess on the windscreen. A system overhaul including a valet will get rid of the mess.

[I only had the trumble mission once a long long time ago. And had so many aboard I could hardly see out the screen.
Was extremely frustrating.
There have been people that cared about trumbles and kept them as pets. Lestradea claimed that he flew with a single trumble for over a year.
Just a hint: trumbles only multiply when you feed them, but they don't like all cargo. They only eat one of the first 7 types in your inventory, and furs. All other cargo can you carry safely allongside trumbles. As long as you don't transport dangerous cargo, they can be nice companions on your long voyages.

What? They would eat Slaves and radioactives? That cant be right.

It is just a pity that all hints about trumbles are about destroying them, and not to keep them safe as a pet.
Pets? They're vermin!
What's this, do you have an urge to teach them to tapdance, or are you just masochistic... I'd rather loose a pack of Riedquatian rats on my ship - they're just about as hard to exterminate, but are by far less destructive, aren't parthenogenetical, breed slower than trumbles - and most importantly, they stay away from the viewscreen...
On the other hand, how hard would it be to OXP a spayed trumble for those who would keep one?
You know those who, having been mugged and stabbed, fired, dog run over, house burned down, wife eloped with best friend, daughters becoming prostitutes and their countries invaded - still say that "all is well"?
I'm obviously not one of them.

Impossible, as whilst you can award one by script, there's nothing else you can do (removal or change in number owned for example).
IIRC this is deliberate to stop someone writing a Rento-OO-Kill OXP for trumble removal, in the process breaking the trumble mission.
IIRC, if it doesn't eat, it can't breed... can't a scripted trumble have its hunger interfered with, or redo one of them completely in .js reusing the skins and sounds?

No, quite the opposite: instead of using the existing code to create different-looking vermin, I was thinking about coding a pet with the trumble images and sounds - only one of them, and a spayed and muzzled one to boot.

given the invention of "Lave fried trumble" (or whatever it was), once you burn them off they should turn into food you can sell. be a cool oxp that, be able to buy a trumble at the station, let them breed, cook em and sell em.
chance of getting attacked by PETA ships included
Trumble onna stick?
They're delicious and nutritious! Get 'em while they're hot!
