a bug for a game

Jul 26, 2003 spectre_c_me link
apparently a bug appeared, to where a person can leave a station with no engine or battery. not sure if many people can do this but Kuznetsov could. if this bug is indeed possible for all players can we play games with it and make betting game? it made the game kinda interesting to have some fun chasing a floating ship. lol im just wondering if people would support a "soccer" game using a ship as a ball and teams of players

Heey - i was used as a "busball" yesterday, by brandini =D

Could be cool. It could also involve either a station docking hole or a small roid as goal =D

We did already when we figured that out the first time, surprised the bug is back tho, thought it was fixed.

me remembers when FM would boot him into a roid and then someone else would line up for a good punt

we set up a mine feild "net" up so that we could get him in it. it took a while cause when you hit him it was almost impossible to tell where he was going to go. so far we have only done that. was fun though

it is not a bug, but a feature coming in 3.3. if you damage station and dock, you get kicked out of station even if you sold your engine.

Mmm, and may i point you to the magical major.minor.bugfix number? is the .minor a 3? (i don't think so)

When i joined, whenever you logged in, you logged in outside the station, if your ship didn't have an engine, tough.

hrm, that is an interesting thought...

wonder if theyd develop a football(no not that NFL crap) area in the final game.. nations have teams that compete.. hrm, interesting.. and would kinda go with the rpg element as youd could live the life of a sport player..

still it would be fun though right? to be able to have some team to "represent" your nation and have fun with it? use busses unarmed of course the 2 teams playing are reffed by the 3rd team and the 3rd team has to present the ship of course. set up some ground rules and you got a pretty fun game right?
