Oolite Bulletins

After a battle in Thargoid space, while "cleaning up" the debris, I noticed that if you zap a robot fighter you ge
t a bounty of either 50 or 114 credits.

Observation: It's more profitable to zap them than to scoop them.

Question: Why are there 2 bounties?

Interesting, I've not seen the 114, and don't have a clue, but you can get almost as much selling them in Hoopy's.

maybe they (114) are powerless thargons that have shot at police and had their bounty raised?

The best price for Alien Items can be obtained when you dock with a Behemoth.

I'm guessing a Tharglet that has never shot at a Gaccop vessel is 50, but one that has been making trouble is worth more, same as with pirates.

And don't forget: As another bonus you get a kill for every Tharglet, which can be quite helpful on your way to become ELITE.

When I dock on that, the prices are always 0 for everything. The only thing you can sell is the alien item, its got a price, but also not displayed. its a zero although you get paid.

maybe they are hoody thargoids![/i]

@ julyy: I would guess that you probably have an old, buggy version of behemoth.oxp installed. You could try to download it again.

The version on Oosat1 is buggy. But the version on Oosat2 is the updated fixed version.

I downloaded the oosat2 version nothing changes. But the game crashes now randomly ... :/

I still have no pricelist in the behemoth, but got the oosat2 version oxp installed. any suggestions?

also I noticed a third bounty:

50
114
119 ?!!!

lol I dont get the system ...

Maybe it is todo with pilot-characters being taken killed, while having bounties independent of the shipentity they are riding on?

Tharglets don’t have pilots.

*checks* Er… Tharglets shouldn’t have pilots.

they are robots though, and they fight as though they are piloted so they must have an AI.
