Anyone know what these really mean?

Version 1.84:
5. Added - Added two new target types for components: "Ships" and "Ships".

Version 1.82:
6. Fixed - Improved the Transport minister a little.

Ha todays my b-day, what a great b-day present

Now I just have to figure out how they knew

this has probably been covered, but whats this mean:

Quote:

1. Fixed - "Crew ConVersion" damage type will work on all target types, again.
2. Fixed - "Crew ConVersion" damage type will fail against a ship with a Master Computer (regardless if that component is damaged or not). It does not matter if there is a Bridge on the ship.

does 1 undo 2? or does 1 mean that you can crew convert all the damage types listed under the subverter? or does 1 mean that you can now crew convert unlisted types like planets?

I hope this means that we can mod in mind control rays from space, with which to take over planets. not because i think its a good idea, but because its just so funny.

2 just means what it says. A ship with a MC is still protected from the AS even if the MC is destroyed.

1 is undoing a change made in 1.80. This was a beta patch not released to the public. He had changed it so the AS could NOT be modded to work against fighters/drones. Due to popular demand of the beta team and the general community, the exsistance of the change was made public even though the actual patch was not, he undid that change. I'd say if AS doesn't work against planets with 1.78 it's not going to work with 1.84 although I have never tried it. I agree that would be ridiculous.
