After accidently corrupting every single pilot file with the G348 bit, I thought it would be simple just to write a plug clearing the bit. Unfortunatly, the bit sets itself time after time... is there a way to get around this, or are all my pilots eternally screwed?

G348 is not a bit. It is an expression that grants an outfit of ID 348. Outfit number 348 happens to be a bomb. So what you need is a plug that has in one of its field's (OnAccept, OnAbort, OnComplete) D348, which will delete outfit number 348, removing it from your pilots.

Oh wow... now that I've proved how stupid I am... good lord.
I wrote a plug that had On Completion field as !G348. I've read the bible over and over and I can't believe I forgot the Gxxx and Dxxx logic... <droops tail and walks away>,

That wasn't that bad. G348 sure as hell looks like a bit to the untrained eye, and your solution would have been correct in that eventuality.

Yeah, I was wondering why Parodime was so against you too.

Seriously.. enough to make a plug against me. "Blow up Bomb a million times! He's only in a puny shuttle with no shields! Kill the pro-Voinian scum!"

Now, we should probably stop with this before Mazca locks the topic for no apparent reason again.

Yeah, after all I did write the two most evil plug-ins in the history of the EV trilogy..
You conquer and enslave humanity. And the Miranu. And the rest of the Emalgha. Yep. I practically wrote the book on "how to betray your species to the evil Bureacratic Voinians..." I'd say based on outer appearance I'm very much pro-voinian.

Don't worry Mazca, it doesn't concern you
I thought that one of Bomb's plugs must have crashed the guys computer and erased his hard drive or something like that!
