Default Re: Have you ever been beat by the AI?

A ships with scattering armor and no other armor will pass through a minefield of level I warheads completely undamaged. It doesn't have to be Scat III. Scat I and II have structure of 150 as well.

A ship with Organic Armor II (125) or III (150) and no other armor will do the same.

A ship with scattering armor (Or Org II or III) and other armor will take damage to the other armor, but no other components will be destroyed.

A ship with internal components that exceed 100 tons of structure, colony comps, repair bays, space yard (Maybe some others I can't recall) Will take lots of damage, but not be destroyed. With enough mines you could end up with nothing left but the particular component, but all the mines will be gone.

All this changes with the new patch coming out however. The problem is currently damage is calulated a warhead at a time and partial damage goes away between warheads. That is being changed.

Ohhh ok, I get it now. Thanks Geo and Wardad. That clears it up alot. It's nice to know it wasn't a fluke but just part of the game and how it works. I'm still learning to deeper things of the game even though I've had it for about 6 months or more now. But thanks again...
