Not fixed.

what do you mean? you can still remove engines? or you still have the wrong engine in a ship?

Heh, oops. Fixed now. (all the busses got missed - their engines are so historical they don't follow the new naming conventions.)

Yeah, that did it. Nice.

Ray, Some enterprising players switched engines around when LUA was enabled. They saved the ships.

So, I *CAN* get an historical plate on a bus! Damn DMV!!

Actually RelayeR, the lua is still enabled, the engine port is blocked (or unrecognized, or whatever). You can still use the lua commands to add and remove other addons, although why anyone would bother instead of using the buttons is beyond me... but I did.... err, so, nerd.

It is really sad that this is also going on in VO, in darkspace it is also happening and because of it DS is loosing a lot of players.

Humans are beings that will always take advantage of loopholes if there is any so I suppose it shouldnt be that suprising.

lua is a real pain in the rear and it has caused more problems than it is worth.

Eh, it's fixed.

Fixed a long time ago. Also, it was almost impossible to fight in engine hacked ships. They move to quick to shoot anything. They were really fun for dancing around thoogh...

Just remember, there are rules against "exploiting". If you come across something that can be exploited for unfair advantage, please report it to a guide or Dev by PM or email. Please do NOT share it with other players in chat or the forums.

Softy! If you come back, you have to let me know, somehow...

Just so I can come back too, cause we need to go blow things up!

Apex, you & Holden will both be brought into the Fold. The Lady Serco wishes it.

Can't the engine thing just be universally disabled instead?

I'm sorry but given the title of the thread I have to say...

H4XX DA PLANET!

Ok, this is definitely fixed (awhile ago), I'm going to prevent further thread-resurrection by locking.
