Bear, Srul and I were flying a pirate ship. Everything was fine until we jumped to a sector with an empty ship. Our ship started shooting at it and we died slowly because our O2 did not get enough energy.

It was a little backdoor I've left in a0.3 for my self.

And don't worry - it won't be in a0.4 ;)

But you might be able to hack user ROGUE_AI_OWNER which is the captain of all the AI ships.
I even tried to add him to ship's crew to make the ship AI, but i couldn't enter _ thingy.

That's just one of the reasons :)

Small update:

1. Finished making trader gen ships.(actually did that some days ago, jsut forgot to update the TODO list)

2. Did alot of testing, and fixed some nasty bugs.
Actually 1 of them kinda disapeared by itself. And it was very bad one - player connection was crashing the whole server.
And to be honest I'm a bit worried that it might resurface later.(Cuz I didn't find what was the reason)

3. Remember I said that connecting to the server should now work at least 10 times faster.
Well I'm no longer sure that will be the case :)
I've speed up the old reason that was causing it to be so long.
But now there's a lot more content to the server - and I don't know how it will impact the "Downloading server data" phase.
We'll just have to see.

4. Only 3 more points are left in the overall TODO list - and my inner todo list is not much bigger too :D
So if all goes well a0.4 will be out Either today or tomorrow :mrgreen:

5. TODO list updated

Cheers.

Well... You'll have to find some ammo first :)

Oh I can't promise that - cuz I can not test this one till it's uploaded to jrb's server.
But let's hope for the best :)
