Why can\'t I fold?
 

In the demo, whenever I hired a Zorg, I would gain the ability to fold to nearby systems (about 6-7 LY, it seems). I bought the full version and installed the patch, but now whenever I hire a Zorg, I don't get the ability to fold. Why not?

Also, why are item values lower for science ships and higher for terran frigates? Is it to balance the number of slots they have?

Thanks,
Adam

Because only the Zorg helmsman can fold. The piolot cannot. However, his ship can fold in combat which you can use to zip him behind enemy capital ships and pown them.

Handy hint for Zorg Fighter folding... before you fold in combat, turn to face the direction you want to be facing after you fold. Gets your weapon on target faster http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Item values vary according to the mission type. Science missions value lifeforms and such, Military missions value ship systems more. You want to bring back whatever appears to be most expensive for the mission you are playing.
