Guest Fox__Trot Report post Posted May 26, 2002 I doubt this is a bug and so im posting in the newbie area.. Sometimes I like to go into battle with my sheilds down and after a time my ship is at the evacuate level the enemy ships *which up to now have reduced my shiny new ship to shreads* just stop fireing and when I open up the craft status control in the TLM and go to command craft orders and go to attack then freindly units and when it lists my ship it says disabled... So I try to call for a tow but my coms are destroyed so I cant call A tow *unless you dont need your coms system to call a tow...* so im guessing this is where I make full use of my self destruct feature.

Supreme Cmdr Report post Posted May 26, 2002 Launch a shuttle and have it tow your CC to a station, where you can they perform repairs. If you can't launch. Well, yes, press that huge RED button marked DO NOT TOUCH!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Fox__Trot Report post Posted May 26, 2002 heres why I go into battle with my sheilds down someday when going out and fighting a puny fighter it'll somehow evade my pta systems and nearly kill me and thats a big blow to my massive ego So I lower sheilds find the biggest cap ship I can and kill it no sheilds I win most of the time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gryphon Report post Posted May 30, 2002 Hm...will we see that BIG RED BUTTON on the bridge in BCTC? That would be just too hillarious for words. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CommanderJohnson Report post Posted May 31, 2002 Just imagine boarding another cruiser or carrier. Fighting to the bridge. Hitting the SELF-DESTRUCT button, and running off before it explodes. That should get you like 50000 EP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Urza Report post Posted June 1, 2002 I make it a point to launch a shuttle off in the distance somewhere prior to engaging in a potentially dangerous battle (not that I've ever had to use it) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
