Getting rid of space pets
Hello all I'm very new. I just ended up picking up cargo that had a very weird creature in it and now its multiplying and I can't get rid of it. Can anyone tell me how you are supposed to kill it or get rid of it?

Do I remember it right that you got 1 ton fur in your cargo for every furry ball you killed on the Elite C64 version?Disembodied wrote:There's always the "take on a load of radioactives and hope it makes them sterile" trick. Although I confess I have absolutely no evidence that this works....
And of cause: Happy killing sirenangel98. And make a nice and warm furry coat of their remains.

The trouble with Trumbles is that they cling onto you, your ship and your destiny. I suggest holding a fete, or, better yet, a roast where the Trumbles are the guests of honor.sirenangel98 wrote:Hello all I'm very new.

You'll need plenty of light for this occasion. Perhaps you know where to find the brightest sources of illumination?
Such a party merits the best decor. I hope your ship is properly equipped to handle the hottest stars and shield distinguished dignitaries from embarrassment.
Cheers.

Hi,
Welcome to the forum, kinda new myself.
There's LOTS! of stuff going on both in the forum here, and in the game.
Looks like your about to be planning a BBQ, save a hot one for me.
They taste like chicken & have a tender flesh with a delicate crunch (or so i'm told) the BBQ sauce adds to the flavour.
I'll bring the beers & Ace Rimmer (whata guy!) said he might come too.

If you have the trumbles, then I'll donate a shipment of BBQ sauce, buns, and Reidquatian ale. There's no such thing as too much Reidquatian ale.
We can even send a holofac to Hesperus if we run low on trumbles to cook. I'm sure he wouldn't mind too much if his favorite little pe(s)ts get grilled for a good cause.
It sounds like a grand party.

But of course. As you're aware, the Tiomat gives Black Dog Pythons very compelling reasons to separate into component parts.Captain Hesperus wrote:

While I can't guarantee the operational status of the components, Rus has never turned down such donations before. Even you can see the significant value in spare parts, laser scarred or not; it's preferable to being broken down and adrift in the middle of Deep Black Nowhere.
