Did I just get -1500 points for killing level 1?

1. He had 300/2000 health
2. He was inactive

We aren't allowed to attack anymore?

People moan about bunnying so that went in. It was -1000 in v1.

Have added some beer proofing for the LCs - i.e. a "Are you sure?" message when they click the resign button. The nick change code is also coming along so soon it'll be possible to fly under a secret nick so no one votes for you as LC :P

Triples now do 3 times as much PDS / roid damage etc. Same as it was in v1 but 3 times more than its been doing here to date. Don't say you weren't warned ;)

In a dogfight between a full combat and a full piloting ship of the same level and class, will they on average do the same amount of damage to eachother?

We can do a test after the beta if you're around EC? Can give us both the same ship, lots of hp and a few hundred moves....see what happens

You are allowed, but you get a penalty for bunnying. So you need to ask yourself: how badly do I want that notch on my hull or that sector cleaned? :mrgreen:
