Really! I was messing around in ResEdit, and I made the Forklift have a hit radius of 32767. When I fired, I realized that Cap'n Hector had been exploded. Whew! Whatta bug.

how cool I wish you would send me this

Yeah, you can do this w/o hacking the game. Just do the Forklift cheat to recieve the weapon, and fire on an asteroid when Hector is near it. He dies, but you don't have to hack the game to do it.

Well, actualy, that wont work. The asteroids have a <flag?> that makes explosions from weapons hitting them non-existant. Firing anything explosive such as a space bomb over an asteriod will not kill you, in order to kill hector, you must drop a bomb over another ship while he is passin gover it. This will damage your ship, most likely kill the other ship, and definatly kill hector.
P.S. This is a fun bug I found about 3 years ago: Make a cruise missle type weapon, like the graphic of a LF with red fins or something. Give it torpedoe homing (could be missle if this doesnt work right), and give it a life of 32767, the numnerical MAX. Also make it hurt about... 8000 mass and 8000 sheild. Give it a good sized blast radius, and make it relatively slow, about 3/4 the speed of a heavy rocket.
Go to a system with no asteroids, and wait for a ship to start going into hyperspace. Fire as soon as it gets out of the planetary hyper-bubble If done correctly, the missle will not reach its target. Now follow the missle with your ship. After a while, the missle will go after a random ship and kill it. I find this quite funny. (BTW, Try to do this with only 1 ship in the system)

No, it will work; I've done it before.

Yes. It is a Cool Cheaty Plug. (Which is the name.)
Wait, I can't send it to you without your email.
I've also killed captn Hector this way, but he keeps coming back so it is basically useless

Can you send me the plug, too? (e-mail: zac@v-west.in2home.co.uk)

I'll send it to you once I use the computer in the basement. I'm using the iMac right now.
Oh,
Confeds will always win every combat.
No way! What about a couple patrol ships up against a fleet of rebels?
The way to kill hector is to hit it with the forklift. If you HAVEN'T messed with the range of it yo have to get up close and if you get up close, you can see it explode.
The confeds in no way win every combat. I have seen many more battles between the confeds and the rebels won by the rebels. If you want to argue the point, i suggest that you go to "Which is better, Confeds or Rebels?"
Rebels.

It's worth it.
Rebels. all the way

Usually, when a Rebel Destroyer is up against a Confed frigate, the Rebel wins. This is even true if the Rebel has lower shields.
HOW DO YOU PEOPLE PUT SMILEY FACES ON THERE??
Wow, where did all these newbies come from? Great to see some more people around here.. Good for this board to see some activity.
Those of you who havn't should register. It's worth it.
