Shooting your own bombs; intended?

Post by TJJ »

For a split-second after bombs are teleported onto the enemy ship they can be hit by your own weapons fire.

So, targeting your bombs & weapons fire at the same room is a bad idea - and if you're really unlucky, even bombs teleported into different rooms can be hit by your own weapons fire.

The latter is entirely random, and can only be avoided by not firing lasers at the same time as bombs.

All 'bullets' can collide and knock each other out. Your burst may take out an incoming missile for example. And your drones can also be destroyed by friendly or hostile fire.
