Default Re: Self-Destruct is Irrational Component
In this I definitly agree. Damage should affect the spaces (perhaps3, with 1 being most, 2some and 3 least amount of damage) around the ship. Similar to the way it was handled in Moo2. Bigger the ship, bigger the 'boom'. Maybe even different levels of SSD for more damage/resistance to virus weapons(see below paragraph).

Also it would be nice if there was a way to destoroy the SSD without destroying the rest of the ship so capture is possible. Maybe increasing the tech tree in computers? A virus that disables the SSD command sub-routine or something like that.
