If it's not about launching with cargo like narcotics from a system station, I could imagine that you did accidentally hit the wrong ship. This is much easier if you fly a ship with turrets and the turrets miss the target but hit a nearby larger ship. That happened to me while flying the GriffBoa, however, it was rare and never happened during all the time that I fly a Caduceus.

Apart from the chained hubby imagery, (sorry, couldn't help it!

) you can still become an offender by simply hitting other ships, you definitely don't have to kill them. You could also become an offender if you're defending yourself against another ship that's rated clean (a beginner pirate maybe?) and the police shows up at precisely the wrong moment, so they see you hit them first, even though the other ship was the aggressor...

*giggle* At school, when elite was new, I had some fun with a friend while playing this game: one flight his, one flight mine...and discuss the things that happened while flying.

When we got used to the game, we were flying on our own, but still didn't stop discussing the game every day at school.

Ahh, that reminds me of two-player Escape Velocity (I’m such a young one). We’d take turns operating flight controls and weapons.

Not like the great Ahruman to have a cocked-up bracket induced URL link...

I did! Wanna bribe me to remove this? Release a 1.72.3 or such to fix the turret problem?

Well...gonna go and build from trunk soon...it's just that my new dog keeps me away from playing or doing even more important things...
