There costly little weapons that used to just do 4x damage to shields and 1x damage to everything else.

right now they do 4x damage to everything.

But, didn't I read that someone mentioned a TDM cheat? I wouldn't call it a cheat if it's cleary a weapon the game offers. Or am I misunderstanding something?

That's a bug that was introduced in the Last patch. It will be fixed in the next patch. If you play a temporal race on PBW, you're often asked not to use that weapon until the patch is in effect.

Tks, Arkon.

I hardly ever play other race types so about all I know of them is what I run into...

My understanding of mothballing is that basically the ship is sealed off. If so, you cannot upgrade a ship and still have it sealed off.

Of course you could do so. It's not as though opening a ship to space is going to let any moisture or oxygen in to cause deterioration.

So, if we want to be really accurate, I guess we could build the spaceship, and then have the ship hang around the planet for a year while its crew are being trained (to the basic minimum) and only then venture out into deep space.[/QB]

Which is what happens, because mothballing removes crew experience.

Espionage of course. There is no reason why a player must be honest in their political dealings.

You guys, it is the TDB, for Time Distortion Burst. TDM = Tampa Gamer, Daynarr and Mephisto Mod.
