Most games have some sort of paddling-pool-and-water-wings beginning to ease you in: Oolite takes the rather more Darwinian approach of heaving you straight into the ocean, often with a brick or two in your pockets for luck. ~ Disembodied

Yes, which is precisely why I made the Q-Bomb Detector. :mrgreen:
I've more or less trained myself to be prepared for a kamikaze Q-Bomb when taking out the Random Hits mark, but sometimes when the pack is descending on me quickly and I haven't had the time yet to identify which is the mark I'll just start "thinning out the herd" with the aft laser. Just recently I was "lucky" to have targeted the mark without knowing it, and just caught a dying Q-Bomb taunt out of the corner of my eye, and instantly hit the injectors and just barely got out in time. But sometimes I do miss this message! A blue screen of death, indeed.

Sounds like a great piece of equipment, thanks!
