mabey that is a joke...

I know what the 404 and 403 errors are but what is a 405?

404: can not be killed by weapons, but by objects.
405: can only be killed if you killed someone, or got hit by an object.

405: All damage you exert on another is done (twofold?) onto yourself.

hmmm...S404 you cant die? I died twice in the racetrack...

No, no, you can die, but s404 heals you. See? See?

it heals you once a second. so you can die if you receive 100% damage within 1 second.

It's happened again. My Valk can heal itself.

The first time that this happened was fighting Kastin Thunderclaw, where I swallowed two rocket volleys and then rammed him at point blank range, and came out with 91% hull, after being down at ~50%.

The second time just happened in sector 404, where I was in the race track. My ship drifted right and got caught between two of the round stations. I bounced around like a vult does right before exploding, with my health dropping pretty low (not sure where), and then it rebounded to 99%, and then 100%.

I think the trigger to this is somewhere above or on the side of the Valk. still no clue.

s404 is supposed to regenerate your health every 1-2 seconds. If it's happening anywhere else, it's a bug. I also had times where I could've sworn my hull got repaired automatically. I guess I wasn't hallucinating after all.

sometimes happens when you get negative hull upon entering a massive mine field. the hull-o-meter changes digits so fast you can't read it, but it often goes back to positive valuesshortly before dying.

Yeah, it's probably just the difference between your client-side predicted health and what the server thought your health should have been. A jump from 50% to 90% seems bizarre though; there's probably some damage bug. I hate the damage code.

Sector 404 heals you because I made it heal you. And you can't hurt anyone there, either (aside from bumping them into solid objects). That way I don't have to put a station in there.
