1) Don't buy Trumbles, even from reputable chaps like Captain Hesperous.

2) Fly towards the sun until the Trumbles expire from overheating.

3) Jump to another system before you and your ship expire from overheating.

Good luck. 8)

Seems you are fond of death punishments...first hermits, now that guy! Sell constrictor-pilot filled trumbles next time? ;)

At least you got that pod. I didn't knew that it was possible to do that until I read it few days ago :oops:

About the "jump away" hint - you can also use your injectors to speed away. With a fast ship, a ride through the planets atmosphere is also enough...and then it's possible to keep the heat for a long duration at the desired level without overheating the ship, very useful when theres a big horde of trumbles aboard :twisted:

Or, perhaps, you've found your true calling.
Just roast them.
You know that you want to. :twisted:

I know! Kill just a few people without meaning to, and suddenly everybody treats you like a murderer! :D

It's just 'well meaning manslaughter', that's all! :)
The weird thing is that it all seems to turn to food... Oh well, waste not, want not! ;)

edit: _ds_, pass the salt! :)
